[Visualpython-users] Label color (and line) problem

[Gary S. <st...@nm...>]

Hi all,

The following minimal example on my machine produces a /white/ label in 
the center of the screen. Doesn't matter what I use for the color keyword: 
color=visual.color.red or color=(1,0,0) or color=(1.0,0.0,0.0), I always 
get a white label. Any guesses as to what's going on?

Enthought Python Distribution (2.5.2001) -- http://code.enthought.com

Python 2.5.2 |EPD 2.5.2001| (release25-maint:60919M, Feb 21 2008, 
10:31:43) [MSC
  v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import visual
>>> print visual.version
(3, 2, 11)
>>> a = visual.label(text='test',color=(1,0,0))
>>>

This is on WinXP (32bit) ...

Un(?)related, I'm also getting the surprising (to me) effect that if I set 
the label keyword line=0, the label disappears entirely, regardless of 
visibility, which doesn't appear to be the documented behavior.

I'm coming back to VPython after a long hiatus (from v2.something_small), 
so I'm probably missing something silly here.
