Module fl defines the following functions. For more
information about what they do, see the description of the equivalent
C function in the FORMS documentation:
- make_form(type, width, height)
-
Create a form with given type, width and height. This returns a
form object, whose methods are described below.
- do_forms()
-
The standard FORMS main loop. Returns a Python object representing
the FORMS object needing interaction, or the special value
FL.EVENT.
- check_forms()
-
Check for FORMS events. Returns what do_forms() above
returns, or
None if there is no event that immediately needs
interaction.
- set_event_call_back(function)
-
Set the event callback function.
- set_graphics_mode(rgbmode, doublebuffering)
-
Set the graphics modes.
- get_rgbmode()
-
Return the current rgb mode. This is the value of the C global
variable fl_rgbmode.
- show_message(str1, str2, str3)
-
Show a dialog box with a three-line message and an OK button.
- show_question(str1, str2, str3)
-
Show a dialog box with a three-line message and YES and NO buttons.
It returns
1 if the user pressed YES, 0 if NO.
- show_choice(str1, str2, str3, but1[,
but2[, but3]])
-
Show a dialog box with a three-line message and up to three buttons.
It returns the number of the button clicked by the user
(
1, 2 or 3).
- show_input(prompt, default)
-
Show a dialog box with a one-line prompt message and text field in
which the user can enter a string. The second argument is the default
input string. It returns the string value as edited by the user.
- show_file_selector(message, directory, pattern, default)
-
Show a dialog box in which the user can select a file. It returns
the absolute filename selected by the user, or
None if the user
presses Cancel.
- get_directory()
-
- get_pattern()
-
- get_filename()
-
These functions return the directory, pattern and filename (the tail
part only) selected by the user in the last
show_file_selector() call.
- qdevice(dev)
-
- unqdevice(dev)
-
- isqueued(dev)
-
- qtest()
-
- qread()
-
- qreset()
-
- qenter(dev, val)
-
- get_mouse()
-
- tie(button, valuator1, valuator2)
-
These functions are the FORMS interfaces to the corresponding GL
functions. Use these if you want to handle some GL events yourself
when using fl.do_events(). When a GL event is detected that
FORMS cannot handle, fl.do_forms() returns the special value
FL.EVENT and you should call fl.qread() to read
the event from the queue. Don't use the equivalent GL functions!
- color()
-
- mapcolor()
-
- getmcolor()
-
See the description in the FORMS documentation of
fl_color(), fl_mapcolor() and
fl_getmcolor().
