---- [http://web.tiscali.it/marcomaggi/images/canvas_polygon_buttons.png] Image link appears broken on July 8, 2012. ---- [MM] Strange thing: if I move the pointer just above the text on a button and click the event is delivered (I have verified that uwp_cb_action_press is invoked) but then nothing happens: the button is not pressed. There is a small rectangle area just above the text item that shows this behaviour: if I move the pointer a few pixel above or below everything works. I was not able to reproduce the behaviour with a script that just displayes a canvas with a polygon and a word of text in it, so the bug must be in my code. ---- [IDG] For me, there is a small dead area on all sides of the text. I wonder if this is associated with enter/leave events as you move between the text and the button. You bind to the containing frame ... are all events guaranteed to arrive in the correct order? ---- [MM] If someone is able to suggest a way to draw an outer polygon to mimic the highlight border when the focus in in, let me know thank you. ---- [SeS] (11th July, 2012) Nice set of custom canvas buttons, indeed I do observe the same dead area around the text, additionally when user presses the button and at the same time moves into the dead area, it will generate the 'release' event and thus will activate the unpress procedure of the button, even if user is still pressing on the same button. To overcome this situation, we may add the following to the existing set of bindings: ====== $c bind Clickable [list uwp_cb_event_press $widget] ====== But the dead area problem remains persistently... One other thing, when copy/pasting this complete code into [tGĀ²] I had to add the command 'update' right after 'wm geometry . +100+100' inside procedure 'main' in order to see the buttons. No idea why... ---- [SeS] (12th of July, 2012) Found some more time to fix the dead area problem... <>proposal for fixing dead area problem: ====== # canvas_polygon_button.tcl -- # # Part of: Useless Widgets Packages # Contents: test canvas buttons # Date: Wed Dec 22, 2004 # Credits: Gerard Sookahet has put the superformula on the TCL'ers Wiki # # Abstract # # It should support all the common button operations: # # * when the pointer enters the button is hilighted; # * when the button is clicked it is pressed; # * when the pointer leaves the button is de-hilighted # and raised (if pressed); # * when the button is unclicked the button is raised # (if pressed) and the command invoked (if the button # is pressed); # * if focus comes in the text is underlined; # * if the focus goes out the text is deunderlined; # * if the "Return" key is pressed while the focus is in # the button is pressed and then depressed after 100 ms, # and the command invoked. # # Copyright (c) 2004 Marco Maggi # # The author hereby grant permission to use, copy, modify, distribute, # and license this software and its documentation for any purpose, # provided that existing copyright notices are retained in all copies # and that this notice is included verbatim in any distributions.
