Heya, any PyGUI users out there?
I needed some finer text-positioning on a canvas (ie wanted to center a string wrt a point, something show_text() doesn't provide) So I looked into the sources and found all information, eg the dimensions of the surrounding rectangle are given by mycanvas._font._get_pango_layout(mystring, True).get_pixel_size() >From this one can calculate a new basepoint, this works fine. I wonder if there is a more elegant way I've overseen so far. (Or if not, Greg ;) would it be possible to include some optional positioning parameters, something like left,center,right,top,middle,bottom to show_text()). All in all thanks a lot for PyGUI, even if it's still far away from beeing complete. To me it really brought back some fun in python-gui-programming.
