rollover effect

[groves]

hi
I am trying to get a roll over effect on my canvas.(this is a virtual
program which will eventually fit into my final program)

Exactly i have a text on my screen and I want to have a brief
discription across it whenever the user takes the mouse on it n hence
giving information about the type of text(event).

Another thign i am looking for is to have a right click on that very
text as well
If somebody can put some light on it, then it would be really great for
my project.
Thank you in advance.

IDLE's a IDE not a GUI, you can develop scripts with it that use many
different GUI systems.

Are you using Tkinter? (If so, Python MegaWidgets, Pmw, is a great
resource. It has rollover tooltips. http://pmw.sourceforge.net/ )

Not a problem. Although "IDE" and "GUI" are terms that are not
specific to python. But you still haven't answered my question? Are
you using Tkinter? wxWidgets? Gtk bindings?

Assuming that you're using Tkinter, what prevents you from using Pmw?

PMW uses Tkinter too, so there is nothing "new",
it just has more "complicate d" widgets already
written for you using Tkinter...

Also, the time it would take to learn how to use Pmw's "Balloon" widget
would almost certainly be much less than rolling your own. There are a
few tricky bits to getting it working right in Tkinter that Pmw makes
short work of.
