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.
