Problem rendering Compose.Context from GraphPlot.gplot() with gksqt backend on Windows (Julia v1.11.4)

Welcome to the Julia community!

  • Plots/GR are separate from Compose.jl
  • Compose has 3 graphical backends (svg, pdf/png, and tikz/pgf)
  • Compose has a draw function e.g. draw(PNG(), drawing)
  • Compose doesn’t need any display functions of it’s own (typically other packages that define “plottable objects” write their own display functions e.g. that call Compose.draw). See e.g. the Gadfly display functions
  • see more Julia discourse examples here and here
  • Juliacon video about Julia’s display system
