unable to suppress warning messages

wxPython Users
1

Hi, all. I am loading some tiff files as wxImages and have a number of
files that throw warnings every time I open them. I get at least one
message box that says "unknown field with tag xxxxxx ignored" which
waits for the user to hit ok, and then works fine.

What I would like is to be able to keep the warning from popping up at
all. I have tried using wxLog_SetActiveTarget(mylog()) where mylog is a
class that derives from wxPyLog and whose DoLogString method consists of
'pass'

Am I doing something wrong? Is this warning box hardcoded somewhere?

Thanks for your help,

Mark Roach

It is. It's burried down in the tiff library, but there is support in the tiff library for plugging in a new warning handler. Please enter a feature request to this effect.
