[wxPython] Icons in the Status Bar

Hello!

I've done just this thing; I puzzled it out by swiping the code from the
wxStatusBar demo that comes with wxPython (it has the checkbox that
enables/disables the clock) and reworking it a bit.

Unfortunately, I'm off at a conference so I've not got easy access to my
source code to share; try looking at that for a start and I'll try to
remember to post up the code at the wxPython site next Monday. (If I
don't, remind me and I'll do it. =)

Cheers!

Subject: [wxPython] Icons in the Status Bar

I am on the verge of having a Python application accepted where I
work
(that's a HUGE deal, folks, we are very into windows only). I have
placed
my app in a wxPython GUI (as all right thinking people would) and the
most
common reaction I get is "That's Python?". The powers that be are
impressed
with how quickly I got this out, and there is the possibility that we
may
start using python for more projects; in fact, I have been asked to
teach
our testing team some Python so we can automate more of our testing
procedures. It's pretty cool.

What I would like to do is add the wxPython (and perhaps the Python
and
wxWindows) logo to the status bar. To do some advertising. I can
create the
multi-section status bar (like that's hard or something), but how can
I
squeeze the logos down to size to fit them into the smaller area?

Thanks!
