pqGUI

pqGUI - v0.0.2

An attempt to emulate the windows GUI with easy to use styling. Currently implemented:

Easy and flexibly style system (possible to style widgets individually, update styles all at once, and more)
Easy bind system
DOUBLECLICK, MOUSEENTER, and MOUSELEAVE events added
Windows (titlebar, icon, and decorator buttons)
Popup's (current name for menu dropdowns. gotta better name?) with:
- PopupItem
- PopupSeperator
- SubPopupItem
Scrollbar (can be attached to Containers or used manually)
Container (holds other widgets, even out of view, and can scroll to show the whole view)
Text (basic text display with no/character/word wrapping)
RichText (very basic rich text display with no/character/word wrapping)
Box (with optional text title)
Check
Radio (currently doesn't look perfect, but its the best i could get with built in draw commands)
Button (icon or text)
Canvas (very basic, just draw to its surface)
Widget (basic widget class that everything else derives from)

Downsides: All widgets take static position and widths, and there is no "dirty updating", everything that is visible is drawn every time.

Changed styles to be more intuitive and more customizable
Changed internal handling quite a bit
More things are only drawn once they are needed and then cached
Added a basic RichText control to allow text with different fonts/font size, text colors/text bg colors, and the possibility to add "Objects" into the text (like icons)
Added a Check control
Added a Radio control (doesn't look perfect, but its the best i could get with built in draw commands. any ideas to make this nicer?)
Cleaned some code, fixed some bugs

Poiuy, I've converted your pqGUI to Python 3 (except for disable_icon, because pygame.surfarray doesn't work). I sent you an email to several likely addresses; please reply, or email me at the address you can find here: http://www.burtonsys.com/email/

Link for the new version gives me a 403 error. (So your server explained :-P)

Looks cool. I wish someone would come along with a GUI that works under OpenGL though!

Ah I see, there was a bug where the text didn't gray out when the button was disabled. Fixed, thanks!

Thanks! That is the function for those buttons in the example program, they get disabled after clicked, thanks though! If anyone has comments/bugs/ideas please post them up.

Nice clone. I think I found a bug though. When I click the "Test" or red buttons it won't let me click them again.
