Description
I propose a new module called interactive_selectors.py
that provides a simplified interface for selection tools that can have interaction after they are drawn.
- Create new
Lasso
,Rectangle
,Polygon
,Ellipse
,Span
, andLine
tools. - Deprecate the
_SelectorWidget
s in favor of these new tools, which would have a much simpler interface and consistent behavior. - Support the ability to have multiple tools on the same axis, a use case we support in
scikit-image
, and is also provided inPyQtGraph
. - Always blit if available while drawing, and then draw statically when finished if
interactive=True
(the default). - All tools will have a "move" handle in the center and other appropriate handles.
I would prefer to close #5751 and start work on this new module.
