pygtk

I've been struggling to come up with a script that allows me to take screenshots of my desktop more than once per every second. I'm using Win10. PIL: from PIL import ImageGrab import time while True: im = ImageGrab.grab() fname = "dropfolder/%s.png" %int(time.time()) im.save(fname,'PNG') Results 1.01 seconds per image. PyScreeze ( https://github.com/asweigart/pyscreeze ): import pyscreeze import time while True: fname = "dropfolder/%s.png" %int(time.time()) x = pyscreeze.screenshot(fname) Results 1.00 seconds per image. Win32: import win32gui import win32ui import win32con import time w=1920

I am using this code to retrieve and display an image from the web: class Display(object): def __init__(self): self.window = gtk.Window(gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL) self.window.connect('destroy', self.destroy) self.window.set_border_width(10) self.image = gtk.Image() response = urllib2.urlopen('http://image.url/image.jpg').read() pbuf = gtk.gdk.PixbufLoader() pbuf.write(response) pbuf.close() self.image.set_from_pixbuf(pbuf.get_pixbuf()) self.window.add(self.image) self.image.show() self.window.show() def main(self): gtk.main() def destroy(self, widget, data=None): gtk.main_quit() It works, however I

I have a gtk.Window . How do I set it to be the active window? I can call is_active() to see whether it already is, but I don't see where to make it active. Bonus points: given a gtk.Widget , how do I make the window it is a part of the active window? Ah thanks to this thread , the answer is to call gtk.Window.present() . if W is a gtk.Window : import wnck wnck.window_get(W.window.xid).activate() Here's what worked for me (thanks Dan D for pointing out wnck) def activate(window): screen = wnck.screen_get_default() screen.force_update() wnckwin = [win for win in screen.get_windows() if win.get

i'm trying to make a GTK application in python where I can just draw a loaded image onto the screen where I click on it. The way I am trying to do this is by loading the image into a pixbuf file, and then drawing that pixbuf onto a drawing area. the main line of code is here: def drawing_refresh(self, widget, event): #clear the screen widget.window.draw_rectangle(widget.get_style().white_gc, True, 0, 0, 400, 400) for n in self.nodes: widget.window.draw_pixbuf(widget.get_style().fg_gc[gtk.STATE_NORMAL], self.node_image, 0, 0, 0, 0) This should just draw the pixbuf onto the image in the top left

I've spend past 3 days searching in google, how can I create a screenshot with PyGTK+3 ? There are gallizion tutorials about pyqt,pygtk+2,wx and PIL. By the way, I don't need external programs like scrot, imlib2, imagemagick and so on. Since nobody else posted the translation to GTK3, here you go: from gi.repository import Gdk win = Gdk.get_default_root_window() h = win.get_height() w = win.get_width() print ("The size of the window is %d x %d" % (w, h)) pb = Gdk.pixbuf_get_from_window(win, 0, 0, w, h) if (pb != None): pb.savev("screenshot.png","png", (), ()) print("Screenshot saved to

I am just getting started using pycairo, and I ran into the following interesting error. The program I write creates a simple gtk window, draws a rectangle on it, and then has a callback to draw a random line on any kind of keyboard input. However, it seems that with each keyboard input, I have to create a new context, or I get an error at the moment the program receives first keyboard input (specifically, on the .stroke() line). Error is as follows, if it matters. 'BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 230 error_code 9 request_code 53 minor_code 0) #! /usr/bin
