Hi,
I created a subclass of textctrl to capture AppendText() and print to
a file then call super.AppendText(). Everything seems to be working
fine except for when i call super's AppendText the display does not
print new lines it prints a little square or box instead. Anyone have
an idea why?
We can probably guess, but without a running sample to test we have no solid idea what your AppendText is doing nor how it is doing it. MakingSampleApps - wxPyWiki

I found out what the problem was, it was a really dumb but hard to
catch mistake. Here is my code:
import wx
class logger(wx.TextCtrl):
def __init__(self, parent, style):
wx.TextCtrl.__init__(self, parent, style=style)
def AppendText(self, txt):
super(logger, self).AppendText(txt)
class ExamplePanel(wx.Panel):
def __init__(self, parent):
wx.Panel.__init__(self, parent)
self.logger = logger(self,style=wx.TE_MULTILINE |
wx.TE_READONLY)
self.logger.AppendText("Hello\n")
self.logger.AppendText("Bye\n")
def prints(self, txt):
self.logger.AppendText(txt)
try:
app = wx.App(False)
frame = wx.Frame(None, size=(650,400))
panel = ExamplePanel(frame)
frame.Show()
app.MainLoop()
finally:
del app
The problem turned out to be that I had the line:
wx.TextCtrl.__init__(self, parent, style)
instead of:
wx.TextCtrl.__init__(self, parent, style=style)
And that made all the difference. Thanks for your help though
