idle curiosity about programmatic visual button push yet?

I know there have been a few threads over the years about this: being able to send a command to have a wx.Button push event and actually have that cause the button to appear “depressed”, as it does when a user clicks on it. I saw in this thread (http://www.manning-sandbox.com/message.jspa?messageID=51692) from 2006 that it was a possible GSoC project to expose the native APIs to wx to do this, and I’m guessing it hasn’t yet happened, but just checking.

Not crucial for me, but am considering a short-cut that would circumvent a few actions, including a button push, so I thought it might be nice user visual feedback to see the button pushing itself in. I don’t want to use the generic button, as I feel the native look is nicer.

(Sorry for the double post–thought I hadn’t sent it, somehow.)

No, but if you don't mind platform specific code you can use button.GetHandle() for the native handle to pass to the native APIs.
