Vasilis,
Would you mind posting your full code for this?
Thanks,

Well, I take one thing back: There was a text object at the point
(30,10) -- a text object that was updated with mouse x,y coords every
time a event fired. When without that text object,
find_closest() works well. With it, find_closest gets confused again.
It should be possible, I hope, to work around this issue by means of
tags for the text objects. But I'm curious: why is this happening?
Here's the code, with updated output:
[code="seems like it oughta work"]
def display(self):
self.mainw = Tk()
self.mainw.f = Frame(self.mainw)
self.mainw.f.c = Canvas(self.mainw.f,width=400,height=400)
# remove next line for success with find_closest()
self.mainw.f.c.mouse_text =
self.mainw.f.c.create_text(30,10,text='')
...
self.print_canvas()
print "Center coords: (%.1f,%.1f) and (%.1f, %.1f)" % (x0,y0,x1,y1)
f = mathutils.line_func((x0,y0),(x1,y1))
g = mathutils.inv_line_func((x0,y0),(x1,y1))
print "Objects near (%.1f,%.1f)" % (x0,y0), \
self.mainw.f.c.find_closest(x0,y0)
start_id = self.mainw.f.c.find_closest(x0,y0)[0]
print "start_id: ", start_id
start_x0,start_y0,start_x1,start_y1 = self.mainw.f.c.bbox(start_id)
print "Bounding box near (%.1f,%.1f): (%.1f,%.1f) x (%.1f,%.1f)" % \
(x0,y0,start_x0,start_y0,start_x1,start_y1)
print "Objects near (%.1f,%.1f)" % (x1,y1), \
self.mainw.f.c.find_closest(x1,y1)
end_id = self.mainw.f.c.find_closest(x1,y1)[0]
print "end_id: ", end_id
end_x0,end_y0,end_x1,end_y1 = self.mainw.f.c.bbox(end_id)
print "Bounding box near (%.1f,%.1f): (%.1f,%.1f) x (%.1f,%.1f)" % \
(x1,y1,end_x0,end_y0,end_x1,end_y1)

it sounds like object with ID 1 may be overlapping all the other
objects. Tk's find_closest is primitive in how it handles overlap.
Unless you can guarantee that your text objects will never overlap I
suggest you find the closest one yourself. Keep a list of object
coords
and scan through them. If the objects can be moved around then use a
callback to update the position.

In the end, find_closest was giving odd results even when the
offending
mouse_text object was not created.
So I fired it and replaced it with a 'find_closest_label()' that
searches only the text labels for the closest match. Problem
solved ...
errr ... worked around.

? I've had *great* results with "closest". While I agree
that your approach should be kept in mind, it's not the
first one I try when I'm in the situation I understand from
the original description. Do you have any details on how
"closest" has failed for you?

Dear All,
How can I reset the background color of widget to the default one?
Imagine that I create an entry widget with a specific background color
i.e. white
e=Entry(root, background="white")
e.pack()
...
and at a later state I want to configure the color to the default
system
one (equivalent like when I create it: e=Entry(root))
I've tried
e["background"] = "" # didn't work
e["background"] = None # nothing
del e["background"] # neither
Cheers
