I am looking to make a python program in which I can have a sidebar GUI along with an interactive 2d pymunk workspace to the right of it, which is to be docked within the same frame.
Does anyone know how I might implement this?
My recommendation is to use pygame as your display. If an object is chosen, you can add it to the pymunk space at the same time as using pymunk to get each body's space and draw it onto the display. This is how I've written my games.
Implementing a built in GUI with pymunk and pygame in Python?
