Okay, a slight tangent… I’m going through some old wxPython tutorials, trying to educate myself on it…
So far, pretty standard…
https://wiki.wxpython.org/Getting%20Started
import os
import wx
class MainWindow(wx.Frame):
def __init__(self, parent, title):
wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent, title=title, size=(200,100))
self.control = wx.TextCtrl(self, style=wx.TE_MULTILINE)
self.CreateStatusBar() # A StatusBar in the bottom of the window
# Setting up the menu.
filemenu= wx.Menu()
# wx.ID_ABOUT and wx.ID_EXIT are standard ids provided by wxWidgets.
menuAbout = filemenu.Append(wx.ID_ABOUT, "&About"," Information about this program")
menuExit = filemenu.Append(wx.ID_EXIT,"E&xit"," Terminate the program")
# Creating the menubar.
menuBar = wx.MenuBar()
menuBar.Append(filemenu,"&File") # Adding the "filemenu" to the MenuBar
self.SetMenuBar(menuBar) # Adding the MenuBar to the Frame content.
# Set events.
self.Bind(wx.EVT_MENU, self.OnAbout, menuAbout)
self.Bind(wx.EVT_MENU, self.OnExit, menuExit)
self.Show(True)
def OnAbout(self,e):
# A message dialog box with an OK button. wx.OK is a standard ID in wxWidgets.
dlg = wx.MessageDialog( self, "A small text editor", "About Sample Editor", wx.OK)
dlg.ShowModal() # Show it
dlg.Destroy() # finally destroy it when finished.
def OnExit(self,e):
self.Close(True) # Close the frame.
app = wx.App(False)
frame = MainWindow(None, "Sample editor")
app.MainLoop()
It runs fine, creates the input field, but no menu bars. There are no exceptions, runtime errors, so I’m a bit confused on why there’s no menu…
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
