ABU 19-Aug-2015 - AggTk a new widget for high quality graphics
AggTk is a new widget for high-quality vectorial graphics based on Antigrain Geometry ( www.antigrain.com ). AggTk provides a sort of direct-draw canvas (contrary to the retained-mode provided by tk-canvas) and is able to draw primitives and even images with partial-transparency, anti-aliasing and sub-pixel accuracy.
Currently it is in alpha-stage, and available only for Windows platforms.
Documentation is not currently available; it will be provided next weeks. In the meantime, it's possible to play with same sample-code delivered with the AggTk package. The screenshot below are not really elegant, but they show some of the features AggTk provides.

Interesting, but when I tried to run the demos I got the message at loading the DLL: Argument invalid. That is one of those very uninformative messages that you sometimes get, but it usually means some component is missing. However, I can not discover which component (DLL) is indeed missing. The library as I downloaded it, seems to be 64 bits, is that correct?
ABU All dll are 32 bits. You need TclTk 8.6.x 32 bit, or TclKit.exe 32-bit (in this case you should provide some standard libraries like Snit .. ) . Let me know ...

Right, that must have been it then. I will try with a 32-bits version.
Yes, that worked - I used a MinGW installation, got Snit from my plain Windows one and removed "package require Img". Now I will need to have a closer look at the code of the demos.
