	/**
	 * The Graphics class exposes an easy to use API for generating vector drawing instructions and drawing them to a
	 * specified context. Note that you can use Graphics without any dependency on the EaselJS framework by calling {{#crossLink "Graphics/draw"}}{{/crossLink}}
	 * directly, or it can be used with the {{#crossLink "Shape"}}{{/crossLink}} object to draw vector graphics within the
	 * context of an EaselJS display list.
	 *
	 * There are two approaches to working with Graphics object: calling methods on a Graphics instance (the "Graphics API"), or
	 * instantiating Graphics command objects and adding them to the graphics queue via {{#crossLink "Graphics/append"}}{{/crossLink}}.
	 * The former abstracts the latter, simplifying beginning and ending paths, fills, and strokes.
	 *
	 *      var g = new createjs.Graphics();
	 *      g.setStrokeStyle(1);
	 *      g.beginStroke("#000000");
	 *      g.beginFill("red");
	 *      g.drawCircle(0,0,30);
	 *
	 * All drawing methods in Graphics return the Graphics instance, so they can be chained together. For example,
	 * the following line of code would generate the instructions to draw a rectangle with a red stroke and blue fill:
	 *
	 *      myGraphics.beginStroke("red").beginFill("blue").drawRect(20, 20, 100, 50);
	 *
	 * Each graphics API call generates a command object (see below). The last command to be created can be accessed via
	 * {{#crossLink "Graphics/command:property"}}{{/crossLink}}:
	 *
	 *      var fillCommand = myGraphics.beginFill("red").command;
	 *      // ... later, update the fill style/color:
	 *      fillCommand.style = "blue";
	 *      // or change it to a bitmap fill:
	 *      fillCommand.bitmap(myImage);
	 *
	 * For more direct control of rendering, you can instantiate and append command objects to the graphics queue directly. In this case, you
	 * need to manage path creation manually, and ensure that fill/stroke is applied to a defined path:
	 *
	 *      // start a new path. Graphics.beginCmd is a reusable BeginPath instance:
	 *      myGraphics.append(createjs.Graphics.beginCmd);
	 *      // we need to define the path before applying the fill:
	 *      var circle = new createjs.Graphics.Circle(0,0,30);
	 *      myGraphics.append(circle);
	 *      // fill the path we just defined:
	 *      var fill = new createjs.Graphics.Fill("red");
	 *      myGraphics.append(fill);
	 *
	 * These approaches can be used together, for example to insert a custom command:
	 *
	 *      myGraphics.beginFill("red");
	 *      var customCommand = new CustomSpiralCommand(etc);
	 *      myGraphics.append(customCommand);
	 *      myGraphics.beginFill("blue");
	 *      myGraphics.drawCircle(0, 0, 30);
	 *
	 * See {{#crossLink "Graphics/append"}}{{/crossLink}} for more info on creating custom commands.
	 *
	 * <h4>Tiny API</h4>
	 * The Graphics class also includes a "tiny API", which is one or two-letter methods that are shortcuts for all of the
	 * Graphics methods. These methods are great for creating compact instructions, and is used by the Toolkit for CreateJS
	 * to generate readable code. All tiny methods are marked as protected, so you can view them by enabling protected
	 * descriptions in the docs.

	 * Decodes a compact encoded path string into a series of draw instructions.

	 * position values. Reading the header bits from left to right (most to least significant): bits 1 to 3 specify the
	 * type of operation (0-moveTo, 1-lineTo, 2-quadraticCurveTo, 3-bezierCurveTo, 4-closePath, 5-7 unused). Bit 4
	 * indicates whether position values use 12 bits (2 characters) or 18 bits (3 characters), with a one indicating the
	 * latter. Bits 5 and 6 are currently unused.
	 *
	 * Following the header is a series of 0 (closePath), 2 (moveTo, lineTo), 4 (quadraticCurveTo), or 6 (bezierCurveTo)
	 * parameters. These parameters are alternating x/y positions represented by 2 or 3 characters (as indicated by the
	 * 4th bit in the command char). These characters consist of a 1 bit sign (1 is negative, 0 is positive), followed
	 * by an 11 (2 char) or 17 (3 char) bit integer value. All position values are in tenths of a pixel. Except in the
	 * case of move operations which are absolute, this value is a delta from the previous x or y position (as
	 * appropriate).

	 * <br />A - bits 000000. First 3 bits (000) indicate a moveTo operation. 4th bit (0) indicates 2 chars per

	 * <br />n0 - 110111011100. Absolute x position of -150.0px. First bit indicates a negative value, remaining bits

	 * <br />I - 001100. First 3 bits (001) indicate a lineTo operation. 4th bit (1) indicates 3 chars per parameter.

	/**
	 * Stores all graphics commands so they won't be executed in future draws. Calling store() a second time adds to
	 * the existing store. This also affects `drawAsPath()`.
	 *
	 * This is useful in cases where you are creating vector graphics in an iterative manner (ex. generative art), so
	 * that only new graphics need to be drawn (which can provide huge performance benefits), but you wish to retain all
	 * of the vector instructions for later use (ex. scaling, modifying, or exporting).
	 *
	 * Note that calling store() will force the active path (if any) to be ended in a manner similar to changing
	 * the fill or stroke.
	 *
	 * For example, consider a application where the user draws lines with the mouse. As each line segment (or collection of
	 * segments) are added to a Shape, it can be rasterized using {{#crossLink "DisplayObject/updateCache"}}{{/crossLink}},
	 * and then stored, so that it can be redrawn at a different scale when the application is resized, or exported to SVG.
	 *
	 * 	// set up cache:
	 * 	myShape.cache(0,0,500,500,scale);
	 *
	 * 	// when the user drags, draw a new line:
	 * 	myShape.graphics.moveTo(oldX,oldY).lineTo(newX,newY);
	 * 	// then draw it into the existing cache:
	 * 	myShape.updateCache("source-over");
	 * 	// store the new line, so it isn't redrawn next time:
	 * 	myShape.store();
	 *
	 * 	// then, when the window resizes, we can re-render at a different scale:
	 * 	// first, unstore all our lines:
	 * 	myShape.unstore();
	 * 	// then cache using the new scale:
	 * 	myShape.cache(0,0,500,500,newScale);
	 * 	// finally, store the existing commands again:
