Bug??? wxScrolledWindow and wxTAB_TRAVERSAL doesnt work with XRC

It is not a bug, I looked into wxwidghet source code and searched google and found this:

http://lists.wxwidgets.org/archive/wx-dev/msg28331.html

So you cant have wxTAB_TRAVERSAL on ScrolledWindows anymore.
I guess that if you use wxpython and set non-existing style
nothing happens.

I probably got a warning due to my using XRC. IMO the behaviour should be the same in both cases.

Best regards,

Subject: [wxPython-users] Bug??? wxScrolledWindow and wxTAB_TRAVERSAL
doesnt work with XRC

Hi,
I think I found a bug with XRC and wxScrolledWindow. It seems
that it thinks that you cant use wxTAB_TRAVERSAL style on those
windows if loading from a XRC file.

Before reporting it as bug I just want to check if I made something
obviously wrong. The below script is a testcase. Run it and you will
get an error message like below:

'Unknown style flag wxTAB_TRAVERSAL'

I also think that XRC and statusbar on frames doesnt work. But I have
to create a testcase for that aswell.

Is using XRC not recommended?

Best regards.

Toni

It is a bug. That messages just says that it is not the default style of wxScrolledWIndow any more. It can still be set explicitly.

I guess that if you use wxpython and set non-existing style
nothing happens.

I probably got a warning due to my using XRC. IMO the behaviour should be the same in both cases.

I'll fix XRC.
