[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 ( http://www.antigrain.com%|%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?
