How would you get current selection from a wx.grid.GridCellChoiceEditor() ?

Hi,

I created a wx.grid and set a cell’s editor to wx.grid.GridCellChoiceEditor so that it will display a drop down combo box to enter values.

sampleList = [“Value_1”, “Value_2”]

self.choice_editors = {}

self.choice_editors[“new”] = {}
self.choice_editors[“new”][“editor_1”] = wx.grid.GridCellChoiceEditor(sampleList)

self.my_grid.SetCellEditor(0, 0, self.choice_editors[“new”][“editor_1”])

When I try to get the current value of the cell that has GridCellChoiceEditor:

selection= self.choice_editors[“new”][“editor_1”].GetValue()

the program crashes with following error:

Process finished with exit code -1073740771 (0xC000041D)

What is the proper way of getting values from a wx.grid.GridCellChoiceEditor()?

The answer is that you get the value from the cell, where it should be set by your editor. From the demo:

def ApplyEdit(self, row, col, grid):

“”"

This function should save the value of the control into the

grid or grid table. It is called only after EndEdit() returns

a non-None value.

Must Override

“”"

self.log.write(“MyCellEditor: ApplyEdit (%d,%d)\n” % (row, col))

val = self._tc.GetValue()

grid.GetTable().SetValue(row, col, val) # update the table

self.startValue = ‘’

self._tc.SetValue(’’)

The reason that you get a crash is that once the editor doesn’t have a value once the edit is done as the control is not the editor but rather the editor’s choice control,
(a text control called tc in the demo).

Hope that helps.

I don't understand. How would you get the string value from the grid cell that has a choice editor? Could you please write the specific code for this?

Your editor is called with cell coordinates (row, col, grid) within the grid, (because the editor can apply to more than one cell, e.g. a column of cells), and should on ending editing call ApplyEdit which should set the value of the cell at (row, col) within the grid. To get the value you can use your_grid.GetCellValue(row, col) to get the new value of the cell that you were editing! The demo can be very helpful - https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxPython/blob/master/demo/GridCustEditor.py specifically - as can the documents https://wxpython.org/Phoenix/docs/html/wx.grid.Grid.html#wx.grid.Grid.GetCellValue
