How to use miniFrame to show temporarily.

Thank you. BusyInfo is just for this use. :slight_smile:

But when I created it and destroyed after operation. I found sometimes
the message cannot be shown (Just the busyInfo itself)... Why??

It may look ugly, but you can create a wx.BusyInfo object, then delete it.

You will need to ellaborate on that problem to get helpful answers.

Because you are blocking the event loop, and so the paint events are not being delivered to the BusyInfo window. Try calling wx.Yield() before you get into your blocking operation.

Thanks for your kindness Robin.

In fact I think I did it like below, but it alse happens :

    def OnDoSearch(self, evt):
        if self.search.GetValue().strip() == "":
            self.search.SetValue("")
            return

        rfcNo =
        keywords =

        # Show BusyInfo to wait
        busy = wx.BusyInfo("One moment please, searching...")
        wx.Yield()

        rfcNo, keywords, match = rfc.search_rfc(self.search.GetValue().strip())
        Sortedrfc = rfcNo[:]
        Sortedrfc.sort()
        keywordsDict = dict(zip(rfcNo, keywords))

## # Method 1: use list
        # Clear list items before insert items
        self.list.DeleteAllItems()
        for index in xrange(len(Sortedrfc)):
            self.list.InsertStringItem(index, Sortedrfc[index])
            self.list.SetStringItem(index,1, keywordsDict.get(Sortedrfc[index]))

        #print rfcNo
        #print keywords
        if match == 0:
            self.sb.SetStatusText("No match")
        else:
            self.sb.SetStatusText("%d matches."%match)

        # Close BosyInfo
        busy.Destroy()

Hi Robin

I tested the cvs file: wxWidgets/wxPython/tests/test_busyinfo.py
It seems sometime cannot display the message too.
So I think if it cannot be shown sometimes under Linux . (Fedora Core 6)
