Hi Mike,
How do I create rows of static text in such a way that I can then later.
textrow[1].SetLabel("row one of text")
How about using a wxBoxSizer -- something like:
self.labelPanel = wx.wxPanel(...) # Panel to hold all the labels.
self.labelSizer = wx.wxBoxSizer(wx.wxVERTICAL)
self.labels = # List of labels.
self.addLabel("Value 1")
self.addLabel("Value 2")
self.addLabel("Value 3")
...etc
self.labelPanel.SetAutoLayout(True)
self.labelPanel.SetSizer(self.labelSizer)
self.labelSizer.Fit(self.labelPanel)
...
def addLabel(self, sizer, textrow, value):
""" Add a wxStaticText label to the window, adding it to the given list.
"""
label = wx.wxStaticText(self.labelPanel, -1, value)
self.labelSizer.Add(label, 0, wx.wxALL | 5)
self.labels.append(label)
Then, you could use the following to change the value of one of your static text items:
def setLabel(self, labelNum, newValue):
""" Set the text of label #labelNum to the given value.
"""
label = self.labels[labelNum]
label.SetLabel(newValue)
label.SetSize(label.GetBestSize())
self.labelPanel.Layout()
self.Layout() # In case panel has grown or shrunk, and affects size of
# parent window.
Once you've set this up, it'd be trivial to change your labels with a single function call, eg, self.setLabel(0, "new value 1").
Warning -- I haven't tested this code at all; I just wrote it from memory. Hope you find it a useful starting point...
Cheers,
