> What you're looking for is, for some reason or another, known as a > "canvas". Okay. It seems I am writing my own canvas then. I am stuck on GTL+2.8 for a bunch of reasons so I have not been able to run any of the popular canvas apps.
> People on the list might have suggestions for sorting through these. Right, more questions to a general audience then:- I hope someone can point me in the direction of how to calculate when an x,y is within the area of an object - based on it's closed-path shape not a general bounding area. That's something I am all at sea about. For the "bubbling" of events through my objects, I think I have an angle on it and can start hacking. One other thing puzzles me; how to know when a given object is occluded by others on the canvas? Is it worth trying to find those situations or just handle the, say, mouse-over event even if that object is covered by five others? \d _______________________________________________ pygtk mailing list pygtk@daa.com.au http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
