在 PySimpleGUI 中集成 Pygame

Question

I have a game written with a Pygame loop and it currently draws everything happening in the pygame window. I now want to integrate this window into a larger PySimpleGUI window to have nice functionality around the game. Is this possible?

I tried to use the code from here . The problem is that I get an error like this which comes from VIDEODRIVER at line 25:

pygame.error: windib not available

I changed this to 'windows' but then the Pygame window is separated from the PySimpleGUI as a different window.

Can I make the pygame loop as a window INSIDE the PySimpleGUI? Thank you.

Answer 1

It looks like the detached window is an open, unresolved issue with pygame 2 .

If you're able to downgrade to pygame 1.9.6, the linked demo works as expected on Windows after changing the line 25 to: os.environ['SDL_VIDEODRIVER'] = 'windows' as described.

Answer 2

As said there ,

This line only work on windows:

os.environ['SDL_VIDEODRIVER'] = 'windib'

So make a code to skip it when the os is not Windows.

import platform
if platform.system == "Windows":
    os.environ['SDL_VIDEODRIVER'] = 'windib'
