Hello all, I have been working on this project slowly. I am still working based on the crapahalic program however it is becoming less and less of what I am using at the time being. My latest setback is when scaling the gnomecanvas so that the display has a zoom capability everything scales except the text. This makes this canvas impossible to use. I have scoured the internet trying to find the solution but apparently the gnomecanvas.text was not fully implemented to allow for proper scaling. There are properties that are supposed to make it scale but they don't work.
I decided to look for another canvas that I can use as the drawing area for the project. After looking at many different variations of canvas objects I have decided the goocanvas that is supplied in the python-pygoocanvas package through apt-get with debian wheezy appears to work in all aspects I need with the possible exception of exporting to pdf or printing. I will have to investigate that further. If I develop this application around the python-pygoocanvas package can we modify the standard linuxcnc distribution to include this package by default? If so I will continue and modify the code to use this new canvas for the drawing portion of the application. Thanks, Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
