Hi,

I have an application using STC as text-editor. User can cut/copy
text and paste it to somewhere, but the text is cleared in the
clipboard after my app terminates! So I'd like to know how to keep
the cutted/copied text in the clipboard after the app terminates?

Use wx.TheClipboard.Flush(), but keep in mind that it could cause the
memory used by the current contents of the clipboard to never be
deallocated.

    Then wx.TheClipboard.Flush() may cause a memory leak problem? Is it possible to avoid this? What about Notepad and other applications? Do they all handle clipboard stuff this way?

Hi,
I'm new to wxPython but can't seem to find the answer to this
anywhere. I'm using wxPython2.6 with Python2.3, for Windows.

I am using the glCanvas, but don't understand the constant redrawing.
It seems like onPaint is called constantly, and my scene is always
redrawing even when nothing has changed. I wrote my own draw()
function, and I call it every time I make a change to the scene, but
then the scene doesn't redraw if say, I move the glCanvas out from
under another window. Can someone tell me if there is a way to not
redraw my scene constantly?

Thanks,
tynia

Yes, I think so. Some programs will warn you on shutdown that they have
put a large amount of data on the clipboard and ask if you want to keep
it there. (Paint Shop Pro does this, and I think I've seen others too.)
