No SplashScreen module on python3 wx Windows

I am trying to create a Splash Screen in python3 using wx following this tutorial.

According to them, there should exist a SplashScreen attribute under wx, but I get an Error saying that wx does not have attribute SplashScreen.

Also in this link, it is mentioned that SplashScreen should be available under adv(wx.adv.SplashScreen). But no luck here, too. It gives an error saying that wx has no attribute adv.

So, how can I create a splash screen in python 3 using wx?

BTW, I am using wxPython (4.0.0b2), python 3.5.3 and Windows 10. Also, Updating and reinstalling wxPython did no good.

Any help would be appreciated.

In the demo it uses:

try:
     from agw import advancedsplash as AS
except ImportError: # if it's not there locally, try the wxPython lib.
     import wx.lib.agw.advancedsplash as AS

Also in this link
<wx.adv.SplashScreen — wxPython Phoenix 4.2.3a1 documentation,
it is mentioned that SplashScreen should be available under
**adv**(wx.adv.SplashScreen). But no luck here, too. It gives an error
saying that wx has no attribute adv.

Works for me. What does your code look like?

“c:\Program Files\Python36\python.exe” -m pip install wxPython

Collecting wxPython

Using cached wxPython-4.0.0b2-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl

…

“c:\Program Files\Python36\python.exe” -i

Python 3.6.2 (v3.6.2:5fd33b5, Jul 8 2017, 04:57:36) [MSC v.1900 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

Type “help”, “copyright”, “credits” or “license” for more information.

import wx.adv

help(wx.adv.SplashScreen)
