copied!<p>This is a extreeemely vague question.. But here we go.. I'd skip most of the traditional modules (such as Tk or wxPython but they could work for you).</p> <p>I usually present the Pyglet option to anyone interesting in GUI development or anything graphic wise..</p> <p>Here's a short drag-n-drop example:</p> <pre><code>#!/usr/bin/python import pyglet from time import time, sleep class Window(pyglet.window.Window): def __init__(self, refreshrate): super(Window, self).__init__(vsync = False) self.frames = 0 self.framerate = pyglet.text.Label(text='Unknown', font_name='Verdana', font_size=8, x=10, y=10, color=(255,255,255,255)) self.last = time() self.alive = 1 self.refreshrate = refreshrate self.click = None self.drag = False def on_draw(self): self.render() def on_mouse_press(self, x, y, button, modifiers): self.click = x,y def on_mouse_drag(self, x, y, dx, dy, buttons, modifiers): if self.click: self.drag = True print 'Drag offset:',(dx,dy) def on_mouse_release(self, x, y, button, modifiers): if not self.drag and self.click: print 'You clicked here', self.click, 'Relese point:',(x,y) else: print 'You draged from', self.click, 'to:',(x,y) self.click = None self.drag = False def render(self): self.clear() if time() - self.last >= 1: self.framerate.text = str(self.frames) self.frames = 0 self.last = time() else: self.frames += 1 self.framerate.draw() self.flip() def on_close(self): self.alive = 0 def run(self): while self.alive: self.render() # ----> Note: <---- # Without self.dispatc_events() the screen will freeze # due to the fact that i don't call pyglet.app.run(), # because i like to have the control when and what locks # the application, since pyglet.app.run() is a locking call. event = self.dispatch_events() sleep(1.0/self.refreshrate) win = Window(23) # set the fps win.run() </code></pre> <p>Here you will have to create your own objects (textboxes, sliders.. etc) but you'll have <strong>full</strong> control over them.</p> <p>I've built a few (8-13) large-scale GUI applications and this is the cleanest way to go if you don't want to use brick looking buttons and generic colorschemes.</p> <p>Also, see this thread and many more on GUI discussions, what the best modules are etc:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://wiki.python.org/moin/GuiProgramming" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://wiki.python.org/moin/GuiProgramming</a></li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15896460/game-development-in-python-ruby-or-lua/15896508#15896508">Game Development in Python, ruby or LUA?</a></li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14779486/curses-alternative-for-windows/14779649#14779649">Curses alternative for windows</a> (some other code i know i've given away)</li> </ul> <p>And for Pyglet:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.pyglet.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.pyglet.org/</a></li> </ul>
