wx.lib.agw.cubecolourdialog¶CubeColourDialog is an alternative implementation of wx.ColourDialog.
The CubeColourDialog is an alternative implementation of wx.ColourDialog, and it
offers different functionalities with respect to the default wxPython one. It
can be used as a replacement of wx.ColourDialog with exactly the same syntax and
methods.
Some features:
RGB components may be controlled using spin controls or with mouse gestures on a 3D RGB cube, with the 3 components laying on the X, Y, Z axes;
HSB components may be controlled using spin controls or with mouse gestures on a 2D colour wheel;
Brightness has its own vertical slider to play with;
The colour alpha channel can be controlled using another vertical slider, or via spin control;
The colour alpha channel controls can be completely hidden at startup or the
choice to use the alpha channel can be left to the user while playing with the
dialog, via a simple CheckBox;
The “old colour” and “new colour” are displayed in two small custom panel, which support alpha transparency and texture;
CubeColourDialog displays also the HTML colour code in hexadecimal format;
When available, a corresponding “Web Safe” colour is generated using a 500 web colours “database” (a dictionary inside the widget source code). Web Safe colours are recognized by all the browsers;
When available, a corresponding “HTML name” for the selected colour is displayed, by using the same 500 web colours “database”;
When available, a corresponding “Microsoft Access Code” for the selected colour is displayed, by using the same 500 web colours “database”.
And much more.
Usage example:
import wx
import wx.lib.agw.cubecolourdialog as CCD
# Our normal wxApp-derived class, as usual
app = wx.App(0)
colourData = wx.ColourData()
dlg = CCD.CubeColourDialog(None, colourData)
if dlg.ShowModal() == wx.ID_OK:
# If the user selected OK, then the dialog's wx.ColourData will
# contain valid information. Fetch the data ...
colourData = dlg.GetColourData()
h, s, v, a = dlg.GetHSVAColour()
# ... then do something with it. The actual colour data will be
# returned as a three-tuple (r, g, b) in this particular case.
colour = colourData.GetColour()
r, g, b, alpha = colour.Red(), colour.Green(), colour.Blue(), colour.Alpha()
print("You selected (RGBA): %d, %d, %d, %d"%(r, g, b, alpha))
print("You selected (HSVA): %d, %d, %d, %d"%(h, s, v, a))
# Once the dialog is destroyed, Mr. wx.ColourData is no longer your
# friend. Don't use it again!
dlg.Destroy()
app.MainLoop()

AngleFromPoint(pt, center)¶Returns the angle between the x-axis and the line connecting the center and the point pt.
pt – an instance of wx.Point;
center – a float value representing the center.
deg2rad(x)¶Transforms degrees into radians.
x – a float representing an angle in degrees.
Distance(pt1, pt2)¶Returns the distance between 2 points.
