Moving wxMiniFrame lame question

My guess is that the frame still gets moved, regardless of whether your
process the MOVE event or not. You probably want to keep the window
coordinates when you create thewxMiniFrame, and then move it back to the
original coordinates in the MOVE event handler...

Hi,

I got a wxMiniFrame and I don't want it to be moving... I
tried to do it
trough the wxEV_MOVE event [to catch the event and keep it
without skiping
:slight_smile: ]. What should I do?

Thanx

EVT_MOVE happens after the window has moved, so you can't prevent the move by Skip'ing it.

The best you can do is move it back.

Did it. It works fine, but still frame movement can be seen. Is there a way
to fix it? Here is what I do:
def OnMoveWindow(self, event):
        self.Show(false)
        event.Skip()
        self.Move((4,50))
        self.Show(true)
        return
