What is The Graphics Magician?

The Graphics Magician is composed of two parts: the Picture Painter and the Animator.

The program also has a picture editor that can be used with other programs; a shape editor, which allows a user to flip and rotate shapes; and a path editor, which allows paths to be drawn on a background screen. 

In addition, the Graphics Magician has three animation editors that can be used to design shapes, their paths, and to assemble animations with up to 32 independent objects. 

Its machine-language animation file can be added to BASIC or machine-language programs, giving programmers additional control over paths, shapes, locations, and collision detection.

The Graphics Magician also packs pictures in most condensed form, recognizes many peripherals as input devices, and allows implementation of pictures on other popular microcomputers
