For those who don't know, 'mro' stands for 'method resolution order'. The method returns a list of classes (all except the first are base or super classes of the first) in the order in which their dictionaries are searched for method (or other attribute) names. > >>>> a = CRhomb() >>>> a.move(1,2) > > This executes also Node.move(a, 1,2) > Why? In the absence of other information, I would presume that none of the other classes have a move() method. > Because even QCanvasItem.move delegates the call to the derived object? > But > qt.Qt does not have a move() method... how does it get passed on to Node? Are you sure that QCanvasItem has a move method? What results from >>> print qtcanvas.QCanvasItem.move # ? If so, I would need to see its code to try to answer. Terry J.
