You are right that you need to capture the mouse down event for the canvas and get the cursor position from there. To get the rgb value for that pixel may require the dc, I don't remember enough about them to say for sure. You might have better luck on the mailing list, it's a high volume list and you'll likely get a good response there. -Sandra -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
