I was advised to bring my question(s) on this topic to this list...
---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: boB Stepp <robertvst...@gmail.com> Date: Fri, Jul 17, 2015 at 5:04 PM Subject: How to use tkinter with a touch screen device? To: tutor <tu...@python.org> Apparently I will be finding myself having to write some programs to run on a Samsung Slate tablet, manufactured circa 2011. It has Windows 7 home edition 64-bit as its OS. Hopefully Python 3 will be easily installed, and I will be able to run Python 3 programs on it. Operating under this assumption, what adjustments will I need to make in order to use tkinter for GUIs on this device? So far my searches have not found targeted information (yet). One thing I did find is that complex gestures are not supported by tkinter. But will tkinter see: 1) Short presses as a left mouse click? 2) Long presses as a right mouse click? 3) Virtual keyboard events the same as physical keyboard events? 4) Etc. ? Any useful info along these lines will be greatly appreciated! Otherwise, I will do the usual once I get this tablet updated and Python installed: Barge ahead, write some code, and see what happens! -- boB -- boB _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list Tkinter-discuss@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss
