Text API example yields and error

[francesco-vannini]

Running the following:
from papirus import PapirusText text = PapirusText() text.write("hello world")

Will return:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "text.py", line 3, in <module> text = PapirusText() TypeError: __init__() takes no arguments (1 given)

What about if you run papirus-write "hello world" from command line?

[francesco-vannini]

The issue for text.py seems to revolve around inheritance. I have rewritten the file and made corrections.

text.zip

[shawaj]

have updated the repo for this now. should be working better? can you verify with a new clone?

[ukscone]

the positioning of text is currently not working/implimented although you can mostly get an idea by looking in the demo directory in the repaper/gratis github entry

[ukscone]

added a quick hack to get text positioning working in text.py. it's in my fork of your github

[BenScarb]

I've put together some positional text stuff, in pull request #68

[francesco-vannini]

OK, I will close the issue as indeed the code was lacking the functionality and we are looking at implementing it with some refactoring. Thanks @BenScarb for your efforts so far.
