Symbols, names and general confusion

Yes, but not as i would like to. The config screen gets centered in the
middle of my main screen. I would like it to be centered in the middle
of the screen.

If it is a frame, try CenterOnScreen() or CenterOnParent(), as Franz
already told you.

Andrea.

Uuh! Finally!
I used CenterOnScreen(), after i made it a main window. That was the part i missed earlier.

Thanks,

pre = wx.PreDialog()
        pre.SetExtraStyle(wx.DIALOG_EX_CONTEXTHELP)
        pre.Create(parent, ID, title, pos, size, style)

Hi,

me again. Take this example above for instance.

I would like to use and create a modal dialog for my configuration pane (as this is the right way to do it).

Now:

- what is this weird 2 step process to create a dialog? Why is it different than creating a frame?
- where the heck do I find OTHER symbols to be used as SetExtraStyle? I seek a list of symbols like wx.DIALOG_EX_CONTEXTHELP. What else can be assigned to a dialog and WHERE to find it? It is really frustrating to program in wxPython, as you have constantly to look up, search and browse the documentation, which is often times incorrect and incomplete...

I suspect it is because you are adding additional styles to it.

See my other message for documentation pointers. In this case, you want to
look at:

http://wxwidgets.org/manuals/2.6.1/wx_wxdialog.html

You might also like the new API doc (also it is unfortunately not complet, but it does list all the method names).

See you
