I have a pygame game and I want to use pygame.gfxdraw.aacricle(), but whenever I do it gives me an error:

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'gfxdraw'

How do I install gfx for python 2.7?

I had this same issue using gfxdraw in pygame as well. Once I imported the module explicitly, there were no issues. Adding this line after importing pygame fixed the issue:

import pygame.gfxdraw

Curiously, I don't need to import pygame.draw explicitly in order to use it.
