frame inside of frame (new to wxPython)

wxPython Users

Well, thanks for the pointers, but I am still looking
for something more like a list of available classes and
their associated methods and attributes. Does such a
thing exist. Say I am using a wxPanel widget, what
methods are available for retrieving the selected
value, appending values to the list, etc.

In wxPython the term "frame" means a top-level window,
and you
probably mean a wxPanel when you say frame. In any
case, have you
tried the following resources:

and, of course, the wxPython demo app?

If you're on Win32, look for the "wxWindows Reference" in the wxPython installation group. This is the C++ reference, with a few notes for wxPython added. Also available online here:

Umm, how about the documentation? (included in the distribution, or at
http://www.wxpython.org/onlinedocs.php). At present, the documentation is really for the underlying C++ wxWindows library, but it does include some notes on how to translate to Python/wxPython, and the wiki has more:

http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/C_2b_2bGuideForwxPythoneers

Incidentally, a wxPanel is only a container of other widgets, so the concepts of selected value, appending values to a list, etc. don't really apply.

As far as the specific class you are looking for when you talk about putting a frame inside another frame, it might be a wxPanel (as previously suggested), or it might be a wxBoxSizer used to do nested layouts of widgets.
