tkinter, canvas, get color of image?

[skanemupp]

mapq = PhotoImage(file = 'C:\Users\saftarn\Desktop\elmapovic.gif')
w.create_image(10, 10, image = mapq, anchor = NW)

after doing this is there any possibility of getting the
characteristics of the GIF-picture(or bitmap if i use that)?

it would be very helpfull if i for example could do something like
canvas.getcolor(image, mouseclick.x,mouseclick.y) if u get the point.
get the color of the image where i clicked.

The image isn't "painted" on the canvas, so to answer your specific
question, no, you can't get the color of a pixel on the canvas in the
way that you ask.

However, when you click on the canvas you can get the item that was
clicked on and the x/y of the click. From that you can figure out which
pixel of the image is under the cursor. And from that you can query the
image for the color of a specific pixel.

You can use find_closest to find the object closest to the x,y of the
event. You can also do find_withtag(tk.CURRENT) which returns the item
under the mouse pointer.
