[wxPython] Layoutf format

wxPython Users
1

Hi,

Where can I find out about the format used by
wxPython.lib.layout.Layoutf()? (The 't=t10#1' type of
format.) In particular, what does the pound sign '#'
mean?

And in general, where can I find good references for
wxPython, aside from the few pages on the
www.wxpython.org and the shipped demo?

regards,

Hung Jung

There are more than a few pages in the online docs. All the required
information is there, in the demo or from list mail list.

In no particular order,

1. The Wiki:

http://wiki.wxpython.org/

2. The wxWindows Documentation:

http://www.wxpython.org/onlinedocs.php

(or included as HTML (and .chm Windows help in the windows version))

This is written for wxWindows (C++), though the major differences between wxPython and wxWindows are noted, and the Wiki has a page called C++ Guide for wxPythoneers.

3. This mailing list, and its archives at

http://lists.wxwindows.org/pipermail/wxpython-users/

4. The source code (downloadable separately)

Hung Jung

Thanks. Have you *yourself* looked at (a) online docs,
(b) the demo, (c) from the list mail list to find out
about **the Layoutf()'s format**? Have you ever tried?
Have you? If so, please point out to the mailing list
*where* you can find that information.

As it turned out, source code is a programmer's best
friend. After I download the hybrid distribution, the
info is there in the source code. As for the
alternatives (a) (b) (c), well, good luck.

regards,

Hung Jung

Note: Hung Jung was looking for documentation on something from wxPython.lib, not general documentation.

A better source of information for wxPython.lib:

  run pydoc -p 8080

To start a documentation server on your workstation port 8080. Then browse to wxPython, then lib and the layoutf module. The wxPython lib package is not (AFAIK) documented anywhere save in the modules themselves, so pydoc (or reading the source) is your only friend here. That should change at some point in time, but will likely require a volunteer to make it happen.

Hung Jung, please watch the use of rehetorical construction in mailing list posts, it can be read as very aggressive, and will likely discourage people from offering assistence in the future.

Good luck,
Mike

All docs for Layoutf are in wxPython.lib.layoutf.Layoutf.__doc__
