Can you post some images of similar programs / graphics you are wanting to create? It would be extremely helpful to see concrete "targets". Then I can better inform you if PySimpleGUI is capable of doing what you seek. I've recently been writing more games using PySimpleGUI to see what's missing in the SDK, to determine new features that will help developers. For data visualization, there's Matplotlib and Pyplot, both integrate with PySimpleGUI very well. Someone mentioned Turtle, it too integrates well by using a tkinter canvas. I've been doing simple graphs by using the drawing primitives and games using images that I often include in the source code. The Uno Game for example has all of the cards included in the .py file.

While PySimpleGUI does have a Qt port, it's not as complete when it comes to these graphics primitives and integration with Matplotlib. -mike _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
