In the caveats section you write that you have refresh problems
with the two other demos. I tried them and om my platform
I couldnt see any such problems.

No, I don't think. I wrote it because I need such a
functionality, but it
is not part of wxPython. In the future, if Robin will judge
that it is a
valid contribution and after he will have given a good look
at my code,
he may decide to include it in the wxPython distribution
(usually in the
wx.lib directory, but I am not sure).
so, at the moment, if you find it useful, you can use it. It
is written
in Python/wxPython, so it may be integrated with all wxPython
widgets you
want. For example, in the main demo, the FoldPanelBar has a
SashLayoutWindow
as a parent, which is integrated in a MDIParentFrame that has
multiple MDIChildFrame.
In my opinion, you can put it where you want.

Thanks to have tried it!

Andrea.

Hello Toni,

Probably is only Windows related. After some folding/unfolding, I have some
dirty refresh problems with the controls. The only way I found till now
to get rid of them is to minimize/maximize the window. In this way, the
intelligent (!!!) Windows XP seems to understand that it has to redraw the
entire frame/panel, and the window is correctly refreshed. I don't know
what to do on Windows, but I am very happy to know that it works on your
platform!!

Thank you a lot for your comments. All comments are always welcome!

Andrea.
