To All:
I have been able to generate a canvas and place text on the
canvas in Python like I was able to do in Tcl/Tk. But
unlike the Tcl/Tk program, I am still unable to produce a
mouse readout for easier text placement.
A cursor readout allows one to determine precisely the
x and y coordinates on the canvas where the mouse
is located at any moment in time. In order to place text
precisely at certain locations, rather than spend a long time
via trial and error, I want to get the x and y values via a
mouse cursor readout.
Once I know the precise x and y locations, I can then hard
code this into the program code for text placement.
By the way, just the other day I asked a question and
several people quickly responded.
Thanks much for a list like this. I just marvel at how
easy programming comes to some people. I am
NOT ONE OF THEM !
To anyone that responds, please also send a copy to
my email address: hsteiger@comcast.net
Thanks again and have a good day.
