I've been trying to imitate what is commonly found on most common Linux
desktop application, namely, icons on menu item and toolbar icons with
text. So far, my search had yielded two things which I need
confirmation:
1. icons on menu item is possible by applying a patch by Alberto
Griggio or downloading the latest from the CVS. The patch would
basically add a SetBitmap method in the wxMenuItem.
2. toolbar icons with text is not possible at the moment. Based on the
API documentation, the 2nd parameter of wxToolBar.AddTool(id,label,...)
is a string label. But this parameter is missing in wxPython. If it is,
will give me the same effect ?
Icons on menus are definitely possible. ConflictSolver has them (provided by wxoo.configui) using wxPython 2.3.3, there's no special tricks, just called SetBitmap for the items. As for text items in toolbars, I've never tried that, but I don't think it's currently supported out-of-the-box.
Enjoy,
Mike

Look in wxPython/stattool.py at the comments and docstring around AddLabelTool.

However, I find that my copy of stattool.py does not have any comments
at all, and the method AddLabelTool does not appear in that program, nor
in any other programs under wxPython directory.
My version of wxPython 2.3.2.1.
