wxComboBox and SetValue

wxPython Users

Hi,

When you use SetValue on a ComboBox before it is displayed then the text
looks selected although the ComboBox doesn't have focus.
See attached sample script.

Running wxPython 2.5.1.5 with Python 2.3.3 under WinXP.
wxPython 2.4.2.4 doesn't have this problem and under wxGTK2
with 2.5.1.5 it looks OK aswell.

Hi,

I too have this problem.
Also the SetMark doesn't work, before it is displayed.

I use is 2.5.2.3 on WindowsXP.
I downloaded just now 2.5.2.7 and it has the same problem.

Anybody knows a workaround for the time being?

thank you in advance.
