You're right, there is no facility for that at the moment. I'm just put a legend in a separate window, instead. But then if you save the image, you don't get the legend. The key issue with making a legend is that all DrawObjects use "world" coordinates, so a legend object would be in a given place in world coordinates, where you would probably want it to stay in the same place with respect to the Window, when zooming and panning. I've thought about allowing that sort of positioning. I've made a bit of a start with the: Canvas.GridUnder and GridOver Attributes. You might be able to make a legend as a Grid object. See the Grid.py demo in demos. Google Earth has a system that allows you to place certain objects (like legends) according to window location: top, left, bottom, etc. That's probably what I should do. > Other than that, I will adapt my code to use FloatCanvas (even without > legend, just to see the performances): if I am able to make it work (I > am that good with FloatCanvas :-( ), Let me know, and consider joining the mailing list and sending questions there -- I like to get discussion archived (I've cc'd this to the list): http://mail.mithis.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/floatcanvas > By the way, I'll try to dig in with FloatCanvas, and as soon as I > master it a bit more I will be more than happy to be a contributor to > your wonderful set of classes. That would be great -- you've done some wonderful work with wxPython. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ FloatCanvas mailing list [email protected] http://mail.mithis.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/floatcanvas
