disable selection in wxGrid?

- Created an “OnSelect” handler, and called it using
EVT_GRID_SELECT_CELL(self, self.OnSelect) (where ‘self’ is a wxGrid
subclass).
As well as responding to clicks on checkboxes, the OnSelect handler
deliberately
does not call event.Skip(). This means that cell-selection events don’t
get
processed, so cells never get selected…in theory.
Sounds like trying to pound a (large) square peg into a (small) round hole.
I’m not surprised that it’s acting weird since the wxGrid’s designers
probably never thought it would be used this way.
Any and all suggestions would be most welcome!
As Mike said, unless the number of rows is very large it probably makes more
sense to put the [static text and checkBox] controls directly on a wxPanel or
wxScrolledWindow and use a wxFlexGridSizer to handle layout.

I have a similar application of the Grid – displaying data only and don’t want the user to be able to select
cells, rows, or cols.
Is there a way to disable selection completely? Or is Robin’s final paragraph still the best advice?
Thanks
