SecondWindow

[vsquared]

Is there a way to create a second window in py5? I need one for data entry to be used by the main app.

You can create multiple windows, but only if you use class mode. When you use class mode, you can create multiple Sketch instances and run them all at the same time.

I think I'm going to have to use something like this; wnd2 needs to contain multiple entry fields.

# Uses Imported mode for py5
from javax.swing import *

_wndW = 600
_wndH = 600

def setup():
  size(_wndW,_wndH)
  window_title("Default Processing Window")
  wnd2 = JFrame("wnd2")
  wnd2.setBounds(300,200,300,500)
  wnd2.setVisible(True)

Great, if that works. The second window is separate from Processing but would be open and available to users.

BTW I am working on a new feature to make javafx easier to use with py5. Coming soon.
