How to add SearchCtrl item to a toolbar with AddTool method?

wxPython Users
1

Dear Sirs,

I tried, tried, but couldn’t find out how to add a wx.SearchCtrl object to a wx.Toolbar with AddTool() method.

In the internet, there are examples showing how to add tools to a toolbar with AddSimpleTool(), AddCheckLabelTool(), AddControl() methods.

Is it possible to add wx.SearchCtrl object to a wx.ToolBar with AddTool() method?
Similarly, can you add a wx.DatePickerCtrl object?

Please give me a proper example, what should the arguments of AddTool() method be in this case?

Thanks
Best regards

Have a look at the wxPython demo for the Toolbar, it adds a search
control using AddControl.

Hi Steve,

AddTool is supporting:
http://wxpython.org/Phoenix/docs/html/ItemKind.enumeration.html
http://wxpython.org/Phoenix/docs/html/ToolBar.html?highlight=toolbar#ToolBar.AddTool

You want to add a "control" in your case a SearchCtrl or a DatePickerCtrl so I think you have to use AddControl.

Why is it a problem for you to use AddControl?
