Tkinter custom drawing
Hello everyone, I am wondering if there is a way to use custom drawing in Tkinter. I've been using it for few months, and all I know about custom drawing is to draw directly on a Canvas with such methods as "create_line", "create_rectangle", etc. Now, the problem, is that I have already plenty of widgets on my screen. I just want to draw over them, which is a bit difficult in my comprehension of things. My perfect solution was to put temporary invisible Canvas when I want do use draw methods, but such thing doesn't exist (as far as I could search in this community's posts). Anyone have a clue ? Thanks, Xavier Berard -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

> from Tkinter import Invisiblecanvas ? The whole web never mentions this Invisiblecanvas. Do you have anything alike to share ? ;) Xavier -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Want I want to do is a sort of GUI builder for Tkinter. I already finished a rough version, but for now I'm making a lighter version of this project. So, my intent, is to create a widget under the widget. While dragging the mouse, I want to see this rectangle that defines the boundaries of the new widget I'm creating.

Re: Tkinter custom drawing
Thank you this is nice code. I never thought of using the move_pending method.. Still it doesn't answer my question (which I ensure is very unclear). But do not worry, I found some way to get throught my dilemma and I can live easily with it. Thanks for your help. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
