Okay, so I'm thinking of taking the plunge into wxPython. But it's especially important to me to know if wxPython can do the following things easily and well:
1) Display a vertical array of radio buttons (or perhaps any buttons will do). They must have no labels, and I need to record exactly which button the person pressed. Pressing needs to trigger going to the next screen.
2) Show images/play sounds for a certain duration. For example, I need to show an image for 500 milliseconds, pause for 400 ms, then show another for 500 ms.
Also, I'm looking forward to finding out if certain little annoyances from Tkinter are fixed (e.g., the difficulty in assigning a button command that involves parameters).
Thanks to vegaseat for enticing me with promises of making the cursor invisible...
Now I just need to know if it can play sounds, and if the images can be displayed for a given duration? Tkinter has the after method for dealing with this. For example:
Also, is there a better way to maximize the frame than just setting its size to the screen size? (When I do that I can still see the frame bar at the top -- in Mac -- and I'd prefer not to, although it's not a big deal.)
I have to say, I am really impressed. Somehow when I was first looking at wxPython ages ago, I must have downloaded the worst tutorial ever, because it seemed so obtuse and useless for my needs -- yet now it seems so simple and has everything I need built in.
I'm going to make a go at switching over my program today... wish me luck! Thanks for all the help!
