wxButton and wxCoulor

wxPython Users

I work on linux.
I can't assign a backGroundCoulor to a button (the function doesn't indicate
an error, but the button remains gray).

Finally I try to recover the name of the color to pass it in label boutton.
But that doesn't go either.

Below, part of code and the error which is then indicated to me.
CODE:
  self.d = wxColourDatabase(self) print (self.d).FindName(wxColour(0,0,0))

ERROR:
  print (self.d).FindName(wxColour(0,0,0)) File
  "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/wxPython/gdi.py ", line 294, in FindName
  valley = apply(gdic.wxColourDatabase_FindName, (self) + _ args, _ kwargs)
  TypeError: Error type in argument 1 of wxColourDatabase_FindName. Expected
  _ wxColourDatabase_p.

I doesn't understand my error. Can you help me?

Some gtk themes don't allow the colours of the widgets to be changed.

There is a instance of the wxColourDatabase already that you should use instead, named wxTheColourDatabase.

>>> wxTheColourDatabase.FindName(wxColour(0,0,0))
'BLACK'
