In this article we will see how we can show / hide the mouse i.e cursor in the window in PYGLET module in python. Pyglet is easy to use but powerful library for developing visually rich GUI applications like games, multimedia etc. A window is a “heavyweight” object occupying operating system resources. Windows may appear as floating regions or can be set to fill an entire screen (fullscreen). In computer user interfaces, a cursor is an indicator used to show the current position for user interaction on a computer monitor or other display device that will respond to input from a text input or pointing device. Cursor can be changed or set with the help of set_mouse_cursor method.
We can create a window with the help of command given below
pyglet.window.Window(width, height, title)
In order to create window we use set_mouse_visible method with the window object
Syntax : window.set_mouse_visible(True)
Argument : It takes bool as argument
Return : It returns None
Below is the implementation
Python3
# importing pyglet moduleimport pygletimport pyglet.window.key# width of windowwidth = 500# height of windowheight = 500# caption i.e title of the windowtitle = "Geeksforneveropen"# creating a windowwindow = pyglet.window.Window(width, height, title)# text text = "neveropen"# creating a label with font = times roman# font size = 36# aligning it to the centerlabel = pyglet.text.Label(text, font_name ='Times New Roman', font_size = 36, x = window.width//2, y = window.height//2, anchor_x ='center', anchor_y ='center')# on draw event@window.eventdef on_draw(): # clearing the window window.clear() # drawing the label on the window label.draw() # key press event @window.eventdef on_key_press(symbol, modifier): # key "C" get press if symbol == pyglet.window.key.C: # close the window window.close()# image for iconimg = image = pyglet.resource.image("logo.png")# setting image as iconwindow.set_icon(img)# getting help cursorhelp_cursor = window.get_system_mouse_cursor("help")# setting this cursor to the windowwindow.set_mouse_cursor(help_cursor)# hiding mousewindow.set_mouse_visible(False) # start running the applicationpyglet.app.run() |
Output :
