all ur tuts rule this site is brill if a littel small so keep up the brilliant work!!
lol

i know this is slighly off topic but its not that far off

is there a maxemum number of times u can
.connect(”a_event”,self.aeventhandle)

self.DrawArea = gtk.DrawingArea()
self.DrawArea.connect(”expose_event”, self.expose) # this works well
self.DrawArea.connect(”configure_event”,self.conf) # and this one
self.DrawArea.connect(”button_release_event”,self.moton) # but this dosnt do a thing
self.DrawArea.connect(”motion_notify_event”,self.moton) # nor this one

p.s they will eventually point to different places!! and are in side a class mydisplay(gtk.VBox ): in side a vbox in a window most of the program works v well but i want to add a bit of polish and hit this wall when i added the connect’s
thank u very much
any ideas

Hi Homer,

To be honest I’ve never looked at gtk.Builder so I really don’t know. If I get a chance I’ll take a look.

Is there a way to make custom widgets like this “buildable” with gtk.Builder? It would be trivial to implement the Buildable interface but then how does one get access to the widget from within gtk.Builder?

Hi Mahdi,

So all you want to do is display an image to the user? Do you want a window in anyway? Or just a window floating there? I would take a look at PyGame or the Python Imaging Library (PIL) .

hi , In (pygtk) , how can I create a popup window and attach a picture (such az PNG or GIF formats ) to it. I want to hide window’s titlebar and borders. Actually, I want to show only the picture and nothing else.

Well keep up the great work! I really think that this will be a large help for anyone who speaks Spanish and is interested in these tutorials…plus you are helping me to find bugs!

[...] Un nuevo tutorial traducido de Learning Python, esta vez sobre cómo crear un widget propio. El artículo original está un poco modificado, ya que la versión original no terminaba de funcionar bien, pero en los comentarios el mismo Mark colgaba una segunda versión con un par de arreglos que no parecen gustarle demasiado, pero bueno, el caso es que funciona y funciona bien. El artículo original se titula Writing a Custom Widget Using PyGTK: Una de las cosas que quería añadir a mi simple aplicación PyWine era una forma sencilla de que la gente pudiera puntuar su vino. Había muchas maneras de hacerlo pero como estaba buscando un tutorial que escribir decidí que quería hacerlo del modo en que puntúas canciones en iTunes. Si no has usado iTunes nunca, puedes puntar las canciones en una escala deslizante de cero a cinco usando estrellas. Básicamente funciona como un deslizador o una Escala Horizontal excepto que lo que dibuja no es una línea, sino una fila de estrellas. [...]
