It looks like origin[1] and 'width' are both tuples. Substraction is  
not defined on tuples. That's what the error message is saying at  
least:

"TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -:" -This means that the  
'-' operator received some bad types, types it doesn't know how to work  
with

"'tuple' and 'tuple'" - This means the two types it received were both  
tuples.
