I'm working on a simple Tarot reading program in Python 2.7, and I'm having a bit of trouble with some GUI abstract. (Sorry, no code in here.)
As of right now, all of the logic is working, and I can generate Tarot spreads that tell me, in text, the role of each card "position", and what card is in that position. For example, if I were to use a simple three-card past/present/future spread, the output would be something like: Past: Prince of Swords Present: The Hermit Future: Ten of Disks What I'm trying to do now is add support for the card images. the problem is, the program supports multiple types of spreads (two, so far, are selectable), and they use different numbers of cards. It looks like I need a variable number of widgets to display something like this. I'm not entirely sure how I would handle something like that. Right now, though, I do have two ideas that I would like to run by you guys. The first is to use one text widget-- as opposed to the one label widget I'm currently using-- and embed the images where the card names would be. I would have to try out some demos first, though, to see if I can otherwise use text widgets just as label widgets. The other idea, which seems much more cumbersome, is to create a dummy frame widget, then a frame widget designed specifically for each type of spread. The user selects the spread they want to use (Celtic Cross), and the associated frame gets placed on the GUI. What do you guys think? Is there a better way to deal (ha!) with this?
