- I frame

TP questions:

- cannot get 112 graphics to work in its own folder

- what is the correct OOP structure?

- what classes are needed?

- adding actions or behavior object would be drag and drop?

List of functions needed:

- shape picker

- color picker

- sound player

Object class with methods

Array of animation actions interaction class, tuples of data needed instructions

Drawing part is complex

Rendering the final animation as a gif should be another recording software

You would create your own color picker

How do I select a shape and be able to edit that certain shape?

- figure out selected objects

- add name text in the corner

- working input panels

- working behavior panels

- make object follow target path

- figure out save and load

- pencil tool (if not, make it move tool)
