None-native widgets, why?

Try adding the python directory to the PATH variable.
also… locate the cygwin shell executable and just copy the manifest file in its directory and rename it accordingly. maybe it will work. :slight_smile:

name_of_exe_file.exe.manifestor use a setup script like the one attached

from distutils.core import setup
import py2exe

manifest = “”"

setup(
version = “1.0.0”,
description = “BioDynamic Analysis for Breast Implant Selection”,
name = “BioDynamic Analysis”,

windows = [{
        "script":"biodynamic.py",
        "icon_resources": [(1, "128x.ico")]  ,
        "other_resources": [(24,1,manifest)]

    }],
   options=dict(
       py2exe=dict(
           compressed=1,
           optimize=2,
           packages=[]
       )
   )

)

Sgnificant step further now! Placing the manifest file in with the compiled
executable with correct name worked. I haven’t tried compiling insid the exe,
but I will be doing so.

Now, I never use cmd.exe so I’ve tried right-clicking and selecting run with
python.exe. For the simple example I posted in the original post, it worked,
but for anything slightly more involved, it says "This application has failed

to start because pywintypes24.dll was not found. Re-installing the
application may fix this problem.". Now i’ve looked in python24 directory and
it does have pywintypes24.dll there.

It normally runs ok through cygwin, albeit with the old style buttons. Am I

missing an environment variable for cmd.exe and i’s an unrelated issue or
could the two issues be linked? Any ideas on how to get the native widgets
when running through cygwin bash as i’ve found this to be a rather convenient,

productive design method.

Thanks
Craig
