refresh a wxBitmapButton

justin_mcguire · August 22, 2006, 4:48pm

is there a way to refresh a wxBitmapButton so that when i change the image on the button it will show the new image, the only way i can achieve this efect is to Destroy() the button and recreate it in the same spot but im having trouble getting it to place into the FlexGridSizer, it doesnt seem to be inside the sizer at all

Chris_Spencer1 · August 22, 2006, 4:53pm

Try:
<bitmapbuttonobj>.Show(False)
<bitmapbuttonobj>.Show(True)

That should force a repaint.

This:

btn.SetBitmap(newBitmap)
btn.Refresh()

should do it. If not then it is a bug. Which platform and version are you using?

Are you doing the SetBitmap*() functions to set the new bitmaps before
attempting a refresh?

Works fine here...

There is no such method as "SetBitmap"

You must use "SetBitmapLabel"

I'd suggest looking at the reference docs under wxBitmapButton for
more information.

Sorry, I was thinking about wx.StaticBitmap. SetBitmapLabel should work for wx.BitmapButton.
