Hi list,
what is the best way to have a nice presentation (input also?) of
textCtrls?
ie: 2,145,145,789.19 vs 2145145789.19
2011-12-07 vs 07/12/2011
XX 11-234567 vs XX11234567

Have a look at wx.lib.masked, first would be a MaskedNumCtrl and the third a MaskedTextCtrl. For the date I would probably use wx.DatePickerCtrl.
Check out the wxPython demo.

Thanks Werner, that's exactly what I wanted:)

wx.DatePickerCtrl.
I use it but didn't found out how to change the displayed date to
my format instead of the default one.

Oops, didn't catch on that it is another 370 style thingy;-)
http://docs.wxwidgets.org/stable/wx_wxdatepickerctrl.html#wxdatepickerctrlsetformat
But only with the generic version of the control as per the doc, otherwise it default to the format set in the users locale.

Of course masked text control supports dates as well, EUDATEYYYYMMDD. or
EUDATEYYYYMMDD/ nearly do what you need or you could use a mask of
####-##-## and if necessary supply a validator.

Good point, only thing it doesn't have a popup, but then it would be faster for data entry, ala 370;-)
"JEANDATEYYYYMMDD.": {
'mask': "####-##-##",
'formatcodes': 'DF',
'validRegex': '^' + '\d{4}'+ '-' + months + '-' + days,
'description': "YYYY-MM-DD"
},
or:
textctrl.SetCtrlParameters(mask = "####-##-##",
formatcodes = 'DF',
validRegex = '^' + '\d{4}'+ '-' + months + '-' + days,
emptyInvalid = ctrl['emptyInvalid'])
Totally untested, see wx.lib.masked.maskededit.masktags for more info.
Werner
P.S. I promise I stop with the 370 references:)

Ok, thanks; I browse the web using your info and find some examples,
although there's a big PB: SetFormat isn't part of wxPython
2.8.12.1-4, it doesn't appear in pydoc and a test:
self.myDP.SetFormat("%y-%m-%d")
errors as:
AttributeError: 'GenericDatePickerCtrl' object has no
attribute 'SetFormat'
So, either I missed the whole picture (which is totally possible),
or I'm a sitting duck.

I see the same on 2.9.2.4.
Will have to wait for Robin or someone else to chip in who actually used this.

That method was removed in 2.9. I'm not sure why it was never wrapped in 2.8, perhaps it was added later and I didn't notice it.
