I'm trying to get a program to do some plotting with turtle graphics,
then wait for the user to click on the graphics window, then do some
more plotting, &c. So far I have the following, which doesn't work:
#v+
waiting = False
def clicked(x, y):
global waiting
print('clicked at %f %f' % (x,y))
waiting = False
return
def wait_for_click(s):
global waiting
waiting = True
s.listen()
while waiting:
time.sleep(1)
return
...
t = turtle.Pen()
s = turtle.Screen()
...
traverse.plot(s, t, "black", scale, adjx, adjy)
wait_for_click(s)
bowditch.plot(s, t, "red", scale, adjx, adjy)
wait_for_click(s)
transit.plot(s, t, "blue", scale, adjx, adjy)
wait_for_click(s)
#v-
Each of my plot(..) calls does some turtle movement, and I want the
program to sit and wait for the user to click the graphics window,
then add the next plot. I've played around with some event handling
examples I found [1], and concluded that the onclick binding only
works while the turtle is doing something. Is that correct? Is there
a way to wait for the click & hear it while the turtle is not doing
anything?
