[wxPython] Can't use keyboard of "enter" to input value on cell

[RichardT]

It’s possible that the version of wxPython could be causing other problems. When I replaced the EndEdit() code in your program with the code I posted above, I was able to complete the editing of a cell and move to the next cell below by pressing the Enter key (and also by using the Tab key). I am using Python 3.10.12 + wxPython 4.2.1 gtk3 (phoenix) wxWidgets 3.2.2.1 on Linux Mint 21.2.

I would certainly recommend upgrading to wxPython 4.2.1 if you are able, as it contains many improvements and bug fixes compared to 4.0.4.

EDIT: I came across the following thread:

IsAcceptedKey() not working on GridCellEditor?

I’m trying to modify the keys that can be used to start editing a custom grid cell editor. I’ve noticed the following function on wxWidgets sources: // return true to allow the given key to start editing: the base class // version only checks that the event has no modifiers. The derived // classes are supposed to do "if ( base::IsAcceptedKey() && ... )" in // their IsAcceptedKey() implementation, although, of course, it is not a // mandatory requirment. // // NB: if…

In that thread @Robin said

It looks like several virtual methods are missing there. I’ve created an issue at GitHub to track work on this fix.

He raised an issue for it on GitHub:

Missing virtual methods in GridCellEditor

That issue was fixed by:

Add missing IsAcceptedKey

The fix was merged on March 13, 2020. Therefore the earliest wxPython version it could have appeared in would be 4.1.0 (released April 24, 2020). Perhaps these missing virtual methods are causing your problem?
