I hope you don't mind, but I snagged it for a look as well. I am not exactly making menus, but I am trying to get a better understanding on making "buttons" (I only have to make 108 of em for my 20 card keno) I have been collecting bits of code and experimenting to learn.

If you don't mind wadingthrough a more-or-less complete game, you can see my main menu code here:http://www.bigdicegames.com/Woody/BDG_07_04.zipLook at stateMainMenu.py which is a menu (a couple of buttons), and thenthere's stateNewGameMenu.py and stateOptions.py which look like modaldialog boxes, but operate the same way.The function in stateMainMenu.py to look at is "handleMouseButton" on line165, which iterates over the buttons, and checks to see if the user hasclicked inside the widget, and if so, calls a method on the widget.It's not a tutorial, but it might be useful.-Dave LeCompte _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web!
