Tygame - GUI Project - alpha 1.0.2

The purpose of the tygame library is to allow the use of GUI objects to quickly and simply build GUI while still using the many features that pygame has to offer. It shares a simlar style of coding to tkinter (a python GUI library). Please note that this is still in the early phase of development so there will be bugs. If you find some please notify me on this page.

The library contains several kinds of comparable widgets that are found or not found within the tkinter library (i.e. Entries, Labels). Here is a list of the widgets implemented thus far: Frame, StaticFrame, Entry, Button, DropFrame, Label, HoverFrame, Table (in sublibrary extension). Tygame adds one other class: TypableSurface: a surface that takes a text and parses the string into lines to display a large amount of words which would otherwise be cumbersome with pygame's font library. More widgets, optimizations, information, documentations to come. Please if you find a bug which is not listed on this page write it so it can be fixed in the future.

Changes

1.0.2a

Bug Fixes

- Fixed a bug where you can click widgets behind other ones
- Fixed a bug where some rendering was a little buggy
- Fixed a bug where typing in one Entry wrote in a different one

Extension

- Added a Counter Widget (still under development)

Main

- Dragging a Frame type will create transparency
- Added keyword alpha to Frame types to control dragging transparency
- Added XFrame which is a closable type of Frame
- Added get_front_obj function to find the front most Frame type

Example

    interesting but no reaction with python2

    Unfortunately, I only learned python 3, so I'm not sure how to allow it to run in python 2.

    good job anywayneed a more elaborate example.py, as screenshot.quit button should exit at release

    When you will post a new version ?

    And very nice work !

    It's simple to use and understand but just say we must use handle_widgets() and not use pygame.event.get()... I understand that after 2 day -__-... :P

    As of right now I'm really busy applying to university. Some time in January I'll be able to post another version. I've been reworking some of my widgets from scratch for a friend. So, in the next version, I might add skinning, copy and paste, word wrapping etc...

    Okay tanks and good chance for university :) ...

    WoofWoofDude 2012-04-03 21:09

    [Bug]
    When you moving the counter object (I think...) the arrows has no reaction...

  • SodaCookie 2012-05-29 02:53

    Oh wow it's been so long, I've just been so busy. I'm sorry I haven't been keeping up the code, but the good news is that I've been working on rewriting the whole thing do that that'll be a lot better than the previous version. Like I've said before, as a freshman, university is so trying. It was naive of me to put a date on when I will be able to finish the next version of tygame. Sorry folks. I will try to continue this project.

     Tanks man :) ... But I'm not hurry, I can be patient.
