Creates a dialogue box that represents a dictionary of values. Any values changed by the user are change (in-place) by this dialogue box. e.g.:
info = {'Observer':'jwp', 'GratingOri':45, 'ExpVersion': 1.1, 'Group': ['Test', 'Control']}
infoDlg = gui.DlgFromDict(dictionary=info, title='TestExperiment', fixed=['ExpVersion'])
if infoDlg.OK:
print info
else: print 'User Cancelled'
In the code above, the contents of info will be updated to the values returned by the dialogue box.
If the user cancels (rather than pressing OK), then the dictionary remains unchanged. If you want to check whether the user hit OK, then check whether DlgFromDict.OK equals True or False
See GUI.py for a usage demo, including order and tip (tooltip).
A simple dialogue box. You can add text or input boxes (sequentially) and then retrieve the values.
see also the function dlgFromDict for an even simpler version
Example:
from psychopy import gui
myDlg = gui.Dlg(title="JWP's experiment")
myDlg.addText('Subject info')
myDlg.addField('Name:')
myDlg.addField('Age:', 21)
myDlg.addText('Experiment Info')
myDlg.addField('Grating Ori:',45)
myDlg.addField('Group:', choices=["Test", "Control"])
myDlg.show() # show dialog and wait for OK or Cancel
if myDlg.OK: # then the user pressed OK
thisInfo = myDlg.data
print thisInfo
else:
print 'user cancelled'
Adds a (labelled) input field to the dialogue box, optional text color and tooltip. Returns a handle to the field (but not to the label). If choices is a list or tuple, it will create a dropdown selector.
Adds a field to the dialogue box (like addField) but the field cannot be edited. e.g. Display experiment version. tool-tips are disabled (by wx).
Presents the dialog and waits for the user to press either OK or CANCEL.
This function returns nothing.
When they do, dlg.OK will be set to True or False (according to which button they pressed. If OK==True then dlg.data will be populated with a list of values coming from each of the input fields created.
A simple dialogue allowing read access to the file system.
