See attached.
After setting a larger font on wx.TextCtrl, it does not change its height sufficiently to see the contents.
The height is changed correctly on Windows/Linux.
Details:
OSX: Mavericks
python: 2.7.5
wxPython: 2.9.5.0
Is this problem related to wx.Button not changing its height with a larger font?
As you might has guessed, I am trying to make a keypad that is touch-screen friendly.
As I am porting this app from Windows/Linux, I am trying to avoid redesign to use common help/documentation etc.
Ideas?
keypadTest.py (1.67 KB)
I just found wx.lib.editor, which is a generic written in wxPython (not system dependent).
I am going to see if I can use that editor to address the problem.

Scratch that idea. The generic editor is pretty old, and does not support SetFont.
Anyone have an idea?

You shouldn't have to do this, but you can set the size yourself to match
the font size:
self.textCtrl = wx.TextCtrl( self,
size=(-1, fontPixels*1.2),
style=wx.TE_RIGHT |
wx.TE_PROCESS_ENTER,
value='' )
self.textCtrl.SetFont( font )
The -1 for the width means "default", or "set automatically". The 1.2 seems
to look reasonable with very little testing!
Boy, wxMac does need some attention -- sorry about that!
This does seem different to the button problem, as buttons won't re-size
even if you give them an explicite size.

Thanks for the tip.
I tried a similar idea with SetSize( (-1, fontSize*1.2) ), but it didn’t work (maybe I had something else wrong).
I will check if this makes a difference.
