funccallable


Callback function for the toolmanager event with signature: def func(event: ToolEvent) -> Any
    Returns 
 cid

The callback id for the connection. This can be used in toolmanager_disconnect.     
   toolmanager_disconnect(cid)[source]
 
Disconnect callback id cid. Example usage: cid = toolmanager.toolmanager_connect('tool_trigger_zoom', onpress)
#...later
