Disallowing Grid Row Sizing

wxPython Users
1

Hello all,

I have grids in my app and I want to disallow row resizing by the user.

I tried this:
   self.Bind(wx.grid.EVT_GRID_ROW_SIZE, self.OnResize, self)
   self.Bind(wx.grid.EVT_GRID_CMD_ROW_SIZE, self.OnResize, self)

def OnResize(self, event):
   event.Veto()

This issue with this is sometimes (non-deterministically) row resize
is allowed, though for most part resizing is not allowed.

I also tried:
        self.GetGridWindow().Bind(
            wx/grid.EVT_GRID_ROW_SIZE,
            self.OnRowSize,
            self.GetGridWindow()
        )

from a previous post about EVT_MOTION not working in a grid and same results.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to why row resizing is allowed,
albeit sporadically?

I have another bit of input, that I think might have some bearing on
this (mis)behavior. I have a grid row mixin to enable drag and drop
functionality (adapted from wxPy Wiki) and the mixin (of which my grid
class is a subclass) binds EVT_LEFT_DOWN. Will this interfere with the
Grid row size events?

Thanks,
-Kartic

This (or a similar) problem was reported a while ago as RFE 852379. It may still be an issue if it has not been fixed. Here is a reference to the thread

Maybe I am misunderstanding what you want, but this works for me -

    self.DisableDragRowSize()

Frank...Thanks, that solved my problem. I had overlooked this method :stuck_out_tongue:

Thank you for this post. DisableDragRowSize() does precisely what
we needed**. It also prevents the “double arrow” cursor when
moving over row lines.
