zinc - Enhanced Canvas widget
Description
TkZinc widgets are very similar to Tk Canvases in that they
support structured graphics. Like the Canvas, TkZinc implements
items used to display graphical entities. Those items can
be manipulated and bindings can be associated with them to
implement interaction behaviors. But unlike the Canvas, TkZinc
can structure the items in a hierarchy (with the use of group
items), has support for affine 2D transforms (i.e. translation,
scaling, and rotation), clipping can be set for sub-trees of the
item hierarchy, the item set is quite more powerful including
field specific items for Air Traffic systems and new rendering
techniques such as transparency and gradients. If needed,
it is also possible to extend the item set in an additionnal
dynamic library through the use of a C api.
