I wrote a pygtk application that displays ascii letters and
spaces arranged as 70 columns by 20 rows. Each letter and its
background color represents a potential appointment spot in a
doctor's office. The user can click on any of the letters to
either make or view an appointment. This is working, but is too
slow. It takes about a second to redraw the letters, even when
using pyrex or psyco.
I implemented this by using an EventBox() for each letter (to
catch the clicks) and then added a label to each EventBox() to
display the letter with its background color. I'm considering
using a TextView() instead to display the letters and managing
the letters with pango.
Is this likely to be faster, or is there some other way of
implementing this that would be faster?
could'nt gtk.Buttons() do the job ? (not sure it will speed up
your app but...)
Yes, but I wanted the entire thing to be flat (no relief), and I
couldn't figure out how to get gtk.Button() to do that.
I'm not sure that will speed things up either, since I would still be
displaying 70 * 20 different widgets.
I was hoping displaying one widget (gtk.TextView()) with a 70 * 20
character buffer would be faster.
Thanks for any assistance.
