There is a way to point to an item of a wx.ComboBox using SetSelection method on ClientData insted of index?

Scrolling the whole content of ClientData could do:

for j in range(wxCB.GetCount()):
if wxCB.GetClientData(j) == x:
wxCB.SetSelection(j)
break

Buon anno

Surely your idea of using a dictionary is more elegant, and since you have made up a numeric dict the additional memory cost is trivial. Beyond the inquiry is made in C++, not Python, so much faster: and the combo content might become very long. Thank you for your suggestion.

Ciao Raffaello, you have suggest me to use a dictionary.
On combo data load function I make

for j in range(self.cbCategory.GetCount()):
a=self.cbCategory.GetClientData(j)
print j,a

        x=int(a[0])
        dct_Categories[x]=j

print j,a return

0 (2, ‘AGGLUTINATION’)
1 (27, ‘ELISA’)
2 (52, ‘VARIOUS’)
3 (53, ‘VIDAS’)
4 (59, ‘TO ASSIGN’)

now the dictionary (dct_Categories) will be

{59: 4, 2: 0, 27: 1, 52: 2, 53: 3}

So I populate the dictionary,notice that I’ve use for the key the
dataclient value(x) instead
of the combo index…

than to point on ClientData for example i can do
CategoriesID = 53
it means that
dct_Categories[CategoriesID] return 3, so
self.cbCategory.SetSelection(dct_Categories[CategoriesID])
that finally selects on combo the item with index=3

It work but there is a more elegant mode to do this?

Thanks Raffaello

buon anno anche a te!
