I'm using something like the following to display an image and refresh it in the same window each time the image file is updated:
import cv def display(filename): """Display scores as they are created""" cv.NamedWindow(filename) while 1: ... #wait for signal that filename has been updated, #or to break image = cv.LoadImage(filename) cv.ShowImage(filename, image) cv.WaitKey(1000) I would like to do the same thing using PIL, for two reasons. First, the main project is written in Python 3, but cv is only available in Python 2, so I have to launch the above as a separate process and do IPC with it, which is annoying; whereas PIL has recently come into Python 3. Second, PIL seems like a more appropriate tool. CV is a sophisticated computer-vision project which I happen to be more familiar with, but I'm using it just to display an image, so I feel as if I'm using the Mars Explorer to vacuum my apartment. I have found a couple of StackOverflow and ActiveState recipes to do this but they all seem to involve great globs of windowing code involving Tkinter or Qt, which I know nothing about. CV does seem to magically manage the windowing. Can I do this equally simply with PIL, or perhaps something else in Python 3? Thanks, -- John -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
