Positioning a Widget

Buttons, checkboxes, menus, radio buttons, and sliders collectively are termed “widgets”. The pos attributed of a widget specifies its position.

Options:

• scene.caption_anchor (below the canvas–the default)

• scene.title_anchor (above the canvas)

• print_anchor (bottom of the page, where the print area is)

When you create a widget it is appended to the anchor point.

• For more space after the widget, insert spaces: scene.append_to_caption('   ').

• For vertical space insert carriage returns: scene.append_to_caption('\n\n').

The wtext object allows you to create modifiable text in the caption or title of a canvas.
