gui library sprite sprites window dragndrop

Description

Mouse-sensitive sprites. Hierarchical windows. Drag and drop. All with one new class. No messing with your main loop.

The clickndrag module introduces the "Plane" class which extends PyGame's "Surface" functionality, offering a hierarchy of mouse-sensitive, draggable Surfaces that can be used as sprites, windows, icons or other interactive elements.

In addition, the clickndrag.gui module uses clickndrag to provide basic GUI elements like container, label, text box, option list and button.

Changes

Numerous changes to make clickndrag compatible with Python 2.x. Tested with Python 2.6.5 and Python 3.1.2, using Pygame 1.9.1.

clickndrag supports Python 2.6 alongside Python 3 now!

@burningprodigy, of course you can, it's all GPL after all. But since yours is the second request after Kytriya (or the third, counting Donpachi), I will port it to 2.x myself next week. Stay tuned for 0.4.0! :-)

Can I modify it a little in order to get it working on python 2x?

The problem I have is that I never was able to get MacPorts working on my computer. So the svn directions for the ancient version doesn't work, which makes updating impossible. And Mac Terminal says "command svn" not found. So, I rely on getting my hands on source code where possible. The other problem is that their online downloads are ancient, and the folder only contains the ancient material. They don't update anything but the news. :P However, I did download your file. I might be able to get it work by porting future. I'm not sure though. If not, I might be able to find and fix whatever lines to make it work in 2.6. At anyrate, I'm saving $ for a new PC and hope to get one by the end of the year, which will solve the problem. I also plan on getting my Ubuntu fixed before then, which will also solve the problem as I never had issues with its terminal.

Hi Kytriya, up to now I just hadn't noticed that there was no Python 3-compatible release of Pygame on the Mac. Sorry about that! I think the Mac releases of Pygame will eventually catch up (and you can always bug the Pygame developers about that ;-) ). Thanks for the hint, I hope you will be able to use clickndrag soon.

If Pygame does not use Python 3.0 (especially for mac OS X 10.04), how does this work with Pygame? Pygame isn't even being compiled for Mac OS X 10.04. :P I downloaded it anyways as I might be able to play around with it after I buy a new computer. I LOVE the interface you made! Its odd how Macs have become popular now that people are disgusted with PC's, but everything is only developed for the Viral PC. Personally, I still prefer the PC for many reasons, but for longevity of hardward working, I can't beat the Mac. I've yet to keep a PC working for longer then 1 yr 3 months. This Mac is 7 yrs old and still ticking. rofl Rated it a 4 only because I'm still on the only OS I can keep running - Mac OS X 10.04 PPC (no intel chip). I think you have a very good idea going here otherwise. :D I just can't use it within Pygame yet with my current OS.

@donpachi: Well, it clearly says so on the homepage and in the README. But I added a note above. Thanks for the pointer.

I think you could mention up front that it needs python3.0 to work.
