Features of the Easy Draw screen:
1. Grid on and off
To help learners visualize the coordinate system, a grid can be turned on and off. 
2. Coordinates
To help learners position shapes on the drawing canvas, as you move your mouse around the canvas the bottom-right corner of the screen showcases the x, y coordinates of your mouse. 
3. Color Picker
To help learners identify color values to use in their code, they can launch a color picker from the Easy Draw window. 
Note: The color picker is native to the operating system and will look different on different systems.
4. Save the Canvas Drawing
You can save your drawing as a PNG file by clicking the "Save Canvas" button.  Just be sure to provide the image with a file name.  The image will save in your project's current working directory (most likely the same folder as your code).
