PYGLET – On Text Motion Event
In this article we will see how we can trigger on text motion event in PYGLET module in python. Pyglet is easy to use but powerful library for developing visually rich GUI applications like games, multimedia etc. A window is a “heavyweight” object occupying operating system resources. Windows may appear as floating regions or can be set to fill an entire screen (fullscreen).Typically this is called after on_key_press() and before on_key_release(), but may also be called multiple times if the key is help down (key repeating). We should always use this method for moving the text input cursor (caret), as different platforms have different default keyboard mappings, and key repeats are handled correctly. We can create a window with the help of command given below
pyglet.window.Window(width, height, title)
Below is the syntax of the on text motion, this method get called when this event is triggered
@window.event def on_text_motion(motion): print("Arrow Key pressed")
Below are the list of motion this event covers MOTION_UP MOTION_RIGHT MOTION_DOWN MOTION_LEFT MOTION_NEXT_WORD MOTION_PREVIOUS_WORD MOTION_BEGINNING_OF_LINE MOTION_END_OF_LINE MOTION_NEXT_PAGE MOTION_PREVIOUS_PAGE MOTION_BEGINNING_OF_FILE MOTION_END_OF_FILE MOTION_BACKSPACE MOTION_DELETE
Below is the implementation
Python3
# importing pyglet module import pyglet import pyglet.window.key # width of window width = 500 # height of window height = 500 # caption i.e title of the window title = "w3wiki" # creating a window window = pyglet.window.Window(width, height, title) # text text = "w3wiki" # creating a label with font = times roman # font size = 36 # aligning it to the center label = pyglet.text.Label(text, font_name = 'Times New Roman' , font_size = 36 , x = window.width / / 2 , y = window.height / / 2 , anchor_x = 'center' , anchor_y = 'center' ) new_label = pyglet.text.Label(text, font_name = 'Times New Roman' , font_size = 10 , x = 25 , y = 25 ) # on draw event @window .event def on_draw(): # clearing the window window.clear() # drawing the label on the window label.draw() # key press event @window .event def on_key_press(symbol, modifier): # key "C" get press if symbol = = pyglet.window.key.C: print ("Key C is pressed") # on text motion event @window .event def on_text_motion(motion): # printing message print (motion) # image for icon img = image = pyglet.resource.image("logo.png") # setting image as icon window.set_icon(img) # start running the application pyglet.app.run() |
Output : When we press arrow key this message will get printed
