I wrote up a version last night. Here's an image of the output: http://i.imgur.com/h4Wcd.png It scales the image (pygame.transform.smoothscale) by the largest of the two scale factors. Thus one dimension fits and the other is potentially oversized. This preserves the aspect ratio. It then crops an area the size of the cell out of the center by blit'ing to a new surface with the pygame.SRCALPHA flag set. mark_image = pygame.Surface(cell_size, flags=pygame.SRCALPHA) mark_image.blit(image, (0,0), areatl + areabr) This preserves transparency in the source image when you blit to a cell. I chose the randomly marked cells like this: num_marks = int(round(0.1 * num_cells)) marked_cells = set(random.sample(xrange(num_cells), num_marks)) To draw the grid, iterate over the rows and columns with a nested for loop. Pick the background color out of a list of 2 colors. The index is simply (row + col) % 2. As col increments in the inner loop, the value toggles between 0 and 1. Then when it gets to the next row (i.e. row += 1), the pattern shifts by 1. If the current cell number is in marked_cells, blit the image also. My implementation uses a Board class with the following methods: __init__, update, update_image, set_marks, and draw. It also has two class attributes: bgcolor and cell_colors. The image I chose is a standard Gnome emoticon. Here's the icon's path in my Debian installation: /usr/share/icons/gnome/256x256/emotes/face-cool.png _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
