but I used the class Image from the PIL module instead of the one from Pythonista‘s ui module and that worked

👍

@Trüff saiD

This also doesn‘t work with transparent pictures for me

Weird, for me it works, the image of my example has a transparent background, here in red

@buzzdenver It is not a bug but a limitation of Pythonista and or iOS. It does not run in background.
If you search in this forum, you'll find a lot of occurrences about this subject.
But Pyto app supports it, by simulating a music app.

@Trüff I don't know if you really need a canvas, else, please try this

import ui
v = ui.View()
v.background_color = 'yellow'
iv = ui.ImageView()
iv.background_color = 'red'
iv.image = ui.Image.named('image.png')
wi,hi = iv.image.size
iv.frame = (10,10,150,150*hi/wi)
v.add_subview(iv)
v.present('fullscreen')

Keep the alpha low on the background color

If the image he wants to draw is transparent, its background color has already a low alpha.

@Trüff could you tell me if this solves your problem, thanks

img = ui.Image.named('image.png')
clipboard.set_image(img)
cv.draw_clipboard(0, 0, img_w, img_h)

@ccc that does not work, draw_image wants a string as first argument

cv.draw_image(ui.Image.named("kitty.JPG"), 0, 0, img_w, img_h)
TypeError: argument 1 must be str, not _ui.Image

@Trüff perhaps a canvas bug, try this (with, of course, your own file name)

img = ui.Image.named('kitty.JPG')
clipboard.set_image(img)
#cv.draw_image("kitty.JPG", 0, 0, img_w, img_h)
cv.draw_clipboard(0, 0, img_w, img_h)

You need a "named image"

What is that? For me, in Ui.Image.named(name), name is a file name

And the crash does not have any explanation in faultlog, only "abort"????

@Phlurim I don't know anything about tabulate thus I can't help but anyway, I don't know why an external keyboard would be necessary. And you can always connect via Bluetooth your Mac keyboard to try if it helps. Good luck

Édit: you can use pip to install tabulate. And you can use pip via stash which can be installed via only one line, see the linked page

import requests as r; exec(r.get('https://bit.ly/get-stash').content)
