16
+ ****SimpleGraphics**** is a lightweight Python graphics library designed as a convenient wrapper around the standard ****tkinter**** library. Its primary purpose is to make graphical programming accessible even to beginners: simply import the module, and a graphics window opens automatically, without the need to create classes, objects or manually call mainloop.
17
+
18
+ Unlike tkinter, where developers need to work with controls and other window components, events and geometry managers, SimpleGraphics allows you to focus on drawing, user interaction and animation.
19
+
20
+ The library was created by ****Ben Stephenson****, a professor at the University of Calgary (Canada). It was developed for educational purposes and is actively used in introductory computer science courses.

308
+ ## Sample Program
309
+
310
+ from SimpleGraphics import \*
311
+
312
+ setColor("red")
313
+
314
+ circle(200, 150, 100)
315
+
316
+ setFill("yellow")
317
+
318
+ rect(150, 250, 100, 60)
319
+
320
+ text(200, 340, "SimpleGraphics!")
321
+
322
+
323
+ Known Bugs:
324
+ * It appears that different operating systems number the buttons
325
+ differently. While button 1 always seems to be the left button,
326
+ whether button 2 is the right button or the middle button seems to vary.
327
+
328
+ * Changing to a new font using setFont and then displaying text can
329
+ result in previously drawn text being updated to use the new font.
330
+ The exact circumstances that cause this to occur are currently unclear.
331
+
332
+ * Resize seems to fail on occasion. The program that displays
333
+ all of the colors has demonstrated this behaviour occasionally.
334
+
335
+ * No event is captured when the user resizes the window with the mouse.
336
+ The canvas should be resized to match the window so that getWidth() and
337
+ getHeight() can be used to help scale a drawing to fit the window.
338
+
339
+ * Resize doesn't seem to be actually resizing the window on some versions
340
+ of Cygwin -- It just resizes the canvas and the window fails to resize
341
+ with it. Could this be related to the resize bug noted previously?

345
+ Revision History:
346
+ v1.0.0 -- Publicly released January 23, 2014
347
+ v1.0.1 -- Publicly released February 7, 2014
348
+ Added close function to allow the programmer to close the window
349
+ Added the setWindowTitle function to allow the programmer
350
+ to change the contents of the window's title bar
351
+ SimpleGraphics now maintains a list of image references
352
+ so that images don't disappear when the function ends
353
+ setWidth() now impacts polygons, blobs, arcs and pie slices
354
+ v1.0.2 -- Publicly released February 16, 2014
355
+ Fixed a bug in the close function where it could attempt
356
+ to invoke a method on a None object without successfully
357
+ catching the exception.
358
+ v1.0.3 -- Publicly released August 19, 2014
359
+ Added savePPM and saveGIF functions for images
360
+ v1.0.4 -- Publicly released September 26, 2014
361
+ Added a try/except around the import for unregister so a
362
+ better error message is displayed when SimpleGraphics.py is
363
+ run with Python 2.x.y
364
+ v1.0.5 -- Publicly released November 4, 2014
365
+ Adjusted the implementation of getPixel to adapt to
366
+ PhotoImage.get() returning a string in most versions, but a
367
+ tuple in Python 3.4.x for Windows.
368
+ v1.0.6 -- Publicly released September 4, 2015
369
+ Fixed several bugs related to drawing rectangles with widths
370
+ and/or heights of 1.
371
+ Added a name to each font and improved the handling of font
372
+ modifiers. This may have fixed the problem with setFont.
373
+ Added the fontList and setJoinStyle functions
374
+ Added the keys set and the functions for accessing it (getKeys,
375
+ getHeldKeys and peekKeys)
376
+ v1.0.7 -- Publicly released October 21, 2015
377
+ In Python 3.5.0 the % operator will not accept a floating
378
+ point value for a hexadecimal format. Several int() casts
379
+ were added to work around this problem.
380
+ v1.0.8 -- Publicly released March 17, 2017
381
+ Added setArrow so that lines and curves can include arrow heads
382
+ Added setArrowShape so that the shape of the arrowhead can be
383
+ controlled
384
+ v1.0.9 -- Publicly released October 3, 2017
385
+ Added exception checks to background and drawImage to avoid
386
+ crashes at shutdown when __canvas gets set to None before
387
+ the last drawing operations are attempted.
388
+ v1.0.10 -- Publicly released June 28, 2019
389
+ Fixed a bug where 1x1 rectangles were not being drawn
390
+ Fixed a bug where lists passed to the line function were being
391
+ modified when they shouldn't be
392
+ v1.0.11 -- Publicly released April 28, 2024
393
+ Fixed a bug where rectangles with width 1 xor height 1 were
394
+ being drawn 1 pixel too narrow / 1 pixel too short
395
+ Added the optional angle argument parameter to text when
396
+ the Python version is greater than or equal to X.Y.Z.
