PYGLET – Setting Cursor
In this article we will see how we can set special cursor to the window 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). In computer user interfaces, a cursor is an indicator used to show the current position for user interaction on a computer monitor or other display device that will respond to input from a text input or pointing device.
We can create a window with the help of command given below
pyglet.window.Window(width, height, title)
In order to create window we use
set_mouse_cursor
method with the window objectSyntax : window.set_mouse_cursor(cursor)
Argument : It takes cursor object as argument
Return : It returns None
Below is the implementation
# 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 centre 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' ) # 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: # close the window window.close() # image for icon img = image = pyglet.resource.image( "logo.png" ) # setting image as icon window.set_icon(img) # getting wait cursor wait_cursor = window.get_system_mouse_cursor( "wait" ) # setting this cursor to the window window.set_mouse_cursor(wait_cursor) # start running the application pyglet.app.run() |
