Hello all,
I am trying to use gtk.DrawingArea to draw an orange rectangle, using
some of the information at
http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2tutorial/ch-DrawingArea.html.
I have included a sample of my code below, which draws a black
rectangle. However, I cannot get it to accept the color information
from gc.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

import gtk
class CustomDrawingArea(gtk.DrawingArea):
def __init__(self):
gtk.DrawingArea.__init__(self)
self.connect("expose_event", self.expose)
def expose(self, widget, event):
self.context = widget.window.cairo_create()
self.draw(self.context)
return False
def draw(self, context):
drawable = self.window
gc = drawable.new_gc()
gc.foreground = gtk.gdk.color_parse("orange")
gc.fill = gtk.gdk.SOLID
drawable.draw_rectangle(gc, True, x=100, y=100, width=10, height=50)
def main():
window = gtk.Window()
window.set_size_request(500, 500)
cda = CustomDrawingArea()
window.add(cda)
window.connect("destroy", gtk.main_quit)
window.show_all()
gtk.main()
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
