#7834 — ANN: PyGUI 2.5

PyGUI 2.5 is available:

   http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/greg.ewing/python_gui/

Lots of new stuff in this version. Highlights include:

   - Improved facilities for customising the standard menus.

   - Functions for creating PyGUI Images from PIL images and numpy arrays.

   - ListButton - a pop-up or pull-down menu of choices.

   - GridView - a user-defined view consisting of a regular grid of cells.

   - PaletteView - a GridView specialised for implementing tool palettes.

There is also a big pile of other improvements and bug fixes. See the
CHANGES file for full details.


What is PyGUI?
--------------

PyGUI is a cross-platform GUI toolkit designed to be lightweight
and have a highly Pythonic API.

Apparently *only* Python 3 ?

I'm not making too much of that at the moment, because it
*doesn't* work on Linux yet, and I've no idea how long
it will be before it does.

The issue is that there will apparently not be any
Python 3 version of pygtk, on the grounds that gobject
introspection can be used instead. Unfortunately,
Gtk 3 and related libraries don't quite handle gobject
introspection well enough to support PyGUI at the moment.

One possibility would be to develop a PyGUI branch on top of Tk, so that
it would work with Python anywhere.

Unfortunately, I doubt whether Tk would be up to the task of
supporting PyGUI efficiently. The philosophies of model-view
separation and allowing more than one view of a model are at
odds with the way Tk works.

Anyone who wants to have a go at it is welcome to try,
though.

Any chance to see a hierarchical multi-column TreeListView anytime soon?

There may be a table view, but I can't promise anything about
a tree view, sorry.
