auto-selecting a path after it is changed

Hey all,

I have been wrestling with this for about a week and wanted to get some insight into what i may be doing wrong. I have a genericDirCtrl that i am changing the path to with a browse button. After the path is changed, I want the path to be selected. I have tried to do several things with the treectrl selections, but i cant seem to get it to work. Below is the code i have so far, that is not auto-selecting the folder like i would like. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

here is the GenericDirCtrl and assignments. I did a crazy filter (.?a?) so that i could get to filters at once

self.dir = wx.GenericDirCtrl(self.caseTab, -1, style=wx.DIRCTRL_SHOW_FILTERS|wx.DIRCTRL_MULTIPLE,

filter="Sav and Raw files (.sav, .raw)|.?a?|Raw Files (.raw)|.raw |Sav Files (.sav)|*.sav ", size = (300,200))

self.tree = self.dir.GetTreeCtrl()

wx.EVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGED(self, self.tree.GetId(), self.OnSelect)

def OnSelect(self, event):

filters = [’.SAV’, ‘.RAW’]

try:

list = os.listdir(self.dir.GetPath())

for i in range(len(list)):

if list[i][0] != ‘.’:

for filter in filters:

if list[i][-4:].upper() == filter:

pass

except WindowsError:

pass

The actual path is set in the highlighted line

def onBrowse(self, event):

widget = event.GetEventObject()

name = widget.GetName()

if name == “saveDirBtn”:

mess = “Specify Local Directory”

dlg = wx.DirDialog(self,

message=mess,

defaultPath=self.local_dir,

style=wx.DD_DEFAULT_STYLE|wx.DD_DIR_MUST_EXIST)

if dlg.ShowModal() == wx.ID_OK:

path = dlg.GetPath()

if name == “saveDirBtn”:

self.saveDir.SetValue(path)

else:

self.log(“error browsing”)

self.local_dir = path

change the directory’s path in the Cases tab

self.dir.SetPath(path)

dlg.Destroy()
