I just downloaded it. Looks really nice. So far I noticed one tiny
glitch. In Recent Additions/updates -> TreeMixin->CustomTreeCtrl
unchecked check boxes have black backgrounds. Once they are checked,
their backgrounds become white (using Vista). I am assuming this is
not the intended look.

No, and I am unable to duplicate the problem on my XP or Vista systems. Do
you have anything special about yours?

Hi Mike,

Some of Andrea's demos are partially broken. The KnobCtrl and GradientButton
are supposed to allow the changing of the colors of various parts of the
widget. I couldn't get any of the KnobCtrl's colors to change at all. The
GradientButton's Top Start color changes, but the others don't seem to (or
the change is too subtle for me to tell the difference).

They both work perfectly well for me. Keep in mind that in the
KnobCtrl demo, only the first KnobCtrl is customizable with colours
and ticks (look at the static box text). The same applies to the
GradientButton demo, only the bottom button will change its colours.
On which platform did you test it?

<OT>: I am waiting for congratulations ( ), this morning at 05.36
my daughter was born: she is the most beautiful creature on earth.

Congratulations too.
It's really a beautiful moment in our life.
Hope you don't forget completely wxPython ...

Yay! How long until she is creating generic widgets for wxPython?

is a really good wxpython reference where I can see what values are
available for controls and perhaps an example of how to set them?

Thank you so much for the warm welcome of Gavana 2.0 :-D. I think I
will be back to the list by tomorrow, as far as I know, although I may
disappear for some time due to baby issues

Hello,

I have some problems with de new Demo version:

* When I try to run Supertooltip wxDemo crash:

mario@mario-laptop:~/Programas/wxPython/demo$ python demo.py

(python:12366): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: instance of invalid non-instantiatable type `(null)'
Fallo de segmentación

It doesn't crash for me, although I do get the GTK warnings...

    * This error with ShapedButton:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "agw/ShapedButton.py", line 572, in OnButton
    self.win = ShapedButtonDemo(self, self.log)

IOError: [Errno 2] No existe el fichero ó directorio: '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx/lib/agw/UpButton.png'

This is due to the .png files being left out of the distribution...

Andrea, I noticed the comments in shapedbutton.py about losing the alpha channel for those images if you tried to img2py them. Does it make any difference if you alter the source images to to be RGBA files instead of 8-bit files with a palette? If not let me know and I might have a different trick that would work.

* Knobcontrol:

(python:12405): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -5 and height 13

(python:12405): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -5 and height 13

I don't see these, but they are probably harmless.

* I confirm the odd vies with the Treemixin,see image attached.

Ok, I think I know what this is...

    * Whe I see the Richtextcontrol and close the demo crash:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "TreeMixin.py", line 199, in OnPageChanged
    oldTree = self.GetPage(event.OldSelection)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx/_controls.py", line 2910, in GetPage
    return _controls_.BookCtrlBase_GetPage(*args, **kwargs)
ValueError: in method 'BookCtrlBase_GetPage', expected argument 2 of type 'size_t'
Fallo de segmentación

I'll need more info on this one.

using the same code - how to put in a default value?

For what, a textctrl? If so then just call it's SetValue method before showing the form.

Uhm… I cant reproduce again!

I have a new one with the wx.Notebook, I attach the file, in the lines 748-751 you can see this:

    if wx.Platform == '__WXGTK__':

        panel=wx.Panel(self)
    elif wx.Platform == '__WXMSW__':
        panel=wx.Panel(parent)

thats because if I use: panel=wx.Panel(self) in my Ubuntu works great, but in windows I see a little gray square in the main frame (corner top left position), if I use panel=wx.Panel(self) I see the same in my Ubuntu ,is an error??

Greetings,

Changes in 2.8.9.2

Also thought it to be a good idea to take the time to append an update about the version of Editra that is included in this release of wxPython since a number of things have changed since the initial version released with 2.8.7.1.

The changes are far too many to list but here are some of the major ones.

Many new plugins available

Launch - Can be used for running your scripts from within Editra. Python and about 30 other filetypes are supported (included with Editra)
CodeBrowser - Provides class and method browsing tree for current document Python and about 20 other filetypes are currently supported.(included with Editra)
Projects - Provides simple project file management as well as integrated source control for CVS, SVN, Mercurial, GIT, and Bazaar. (can be installed through plugin manager.)
IPyShell - Integrated ipython shell plugin for using Ipython from within Editra. (install through plugin manager, also requires ipython to be installed).
FTP plugin for editing remote files. (also in plugin manager)

There is also a python specific plugin that is in the works that will bring a number of additional features for working with python code to future versions, more updates on this once its closer to release.

Advanced search features, including fast file grepping, full regular expression support (for both find and replace actions).
Improved python autocompletion
Autocompletion support for HTML/XML files
Basic word completion help for all filetypes (Ctrl+Space)
Some (advanced to basic) auto-indent functionality for nearly all supported filetypes.
Smart handling of various differen’t file encodings.
Number of interesting new UI components, such as the aui navigator that allows for keyboard navigation between differen’t aui panes in a window.
Configurable keybindings
