ListCtrl questions

wxPython Users

Hi,

I have a report style list control with one column
only. I would like the selection bar to be always as
large as the list control itself. Currently the only
way I found it works is passing to SetColumnWidth a
huge value that I'm sure that the list control width
will not get bigger, something like 10000. Is there a
conformant way to do it? As I don't really like this
hack.

The second question, while looking at the list control
in wxpython demo, I noticed that the demo class
derives also from wxListCtrlAutoWidthMixin. What is
this class used at? And why isn't available using the
new wx namespace?

Thanks,
Sorin

the ListCtrlAutoWidthMixin is the way to go.

It is available:

import wx.lib.mixins.listctrl
help(wx.lib.mixins.listctrl.ListCtrlAutoWidthMixin)
