Good that you mention this. In fact, my show() method returns a graphic object. So, if I say "show(G)" or "G.show()" then a picture pops up. But I understand your statement that the show() method is supposed to return None and invoke Graphics.show() internally. So, is it bad if my show() returns a graphic object?
