gradientbuttons and the disable color

Hi Folks,

    I have written some simple code to change the color of a

disabled gradientbutton (import wx.lib.agw.gradientbutton).

    class GradientBtn(GB.GradientButton):

        def __init__(self,parent, id=wx.ID_ANY, pos =

wx.DefaultPosition, size = wx.DefaultSize, name=’’, label = ‘’,
bitmap=None):

            GB.GradientButton.__init__(self, parent, id, bitmap,

label, pos, size,style=wx.NO_BORDER,

validator=wx.DefaultValidator, name = name)

        def inactive(self):

            self.SetTopStartColour(wx.Colour(199,187,187))

            self.SetBottomEndColour(wx.Colour(199,187,187))

            self.SetForegroundColour(wx.WHITE)

    But when I started to write the enabled code I asked a question

  • why isn’t there already a disabled and enabled (inactive,
    active) color change available for the gradientbuttons??? I
    googled but found nothing - that was a little surprising
    considering that it’s a common standard with buttons to have a
    disable and enabled color differences.

      So the question is has somebody already done the work and I just

missed it? Or is there some reason it not there? And yes I
know there are the PlateButtons - I just like the gradient
buttons more.

    Thanks in advance for any comments,
