I've basically reverse engineered the windows colour dialog
interface and created a pure-python implementation that isn't
dependent on any other packages (except wxPython of course). It's also
suprising fast (you can tweak the speed of the algorithm by changing
a 'step' variable).I'm just started a new SF project to house it, but Robin, you might
be interested in including it with the wxPython disto, both as an
embeddable widget, and as a drop-in replacement per-platform.
Sure, just send it to me along with a module to go into the demo. Also,
take a look at the new wxPython Coding Guidlines page at
http://wxpython.org/codeguidelines.php
I take
it using the LGPL license is the best way to make this "compatible".
I'll probably bundle it with the FTP app I'm working on.
Actually, it will need to be the wxWindows License, which is just LGPL
with a couple extensions.

Thanks a lot. That does the job. However this might be a kind of small bug.
On
linux the combobox resizes automatically. Actually it resizes to the very
bottom of the screen if enough choices are there. I think it might be good
to
have a "maximum number of choices visible" parameter.
Anyways - its working now.

Yep! I had this same thought, and will probably be forced to implement

Subject: [wxPython] useBestVisual
Reply-To: wxpython-users@lists.wxwindows.org
I know this has been mentioned on this list before, but I want to bring
it up again.
With useBestVisual defaulting to true, gtk themes are broken on all the
linux machines I have tried it on. If the App is initialized with
useBestVisual=false, gtk themes work. (I compile wxGTK with #define
DISABLE_STYLE_IF_BROKEN_THEME 0)
I don't know if this is a bug in wxGTK or not. Maybe you can't
change the visual and still have gtk themes work properly, or mabe the
visual isn't being changed early enough in the app initialization. I
don't know enough about gtk/gdk to answer those, but why not change the
default if the default is not going to work?
I've checked on a number of machines, and it seems that xwindows has
visuals that are apparently considered (at least by gdk) better that the
24bit TrueColor that was currently being used. On these machines, no
visual is explicitly being called for, just 24bit depth. Here's what the
xdpyinfo looks like on this machine...
number of visuals: 4
default visual id: 0x23
visual:
visual id: 0x23
class: TrueColor
depth: 24 planes
available colormap entries: 256 per subfield
red, green, blue masks: 0xff0000, 0xff00, 0xff
significant bits in color specification: 8 bits
visual:
visual id: 0x24
class: TrueColor
depth: 24 planes
available colormap entries: 256 per subfield
red, green, blue masks: 0xff0000, 0xff00, 0xff
significant bits in color specification: 8 bits
visual:
visual id: 0x25
class: DirectColor
depth: 24 planes
available colormap entries: 256 per subfield
red, green, blue masks: 0xff0000, 0xff00, 0xff
significant bits in color specification: 8 bits
visual:
visual id: 0x26
class: DirectColor
depth: 24 planes
available colormap entries: 256 per subfield
red, green, blue masks: 0xff0000, 0xff00, 0xff
significant bits in color specification: 8 bits
I have no idea what those other visuals are, or if they are better than
the one thats being used (0x23). The depth and color bits are the same
on all of them.
Any chance on getting the default changed to 'false' for useBestVisual?

Create a
EVT_LIST_ITEM_RIGHT_CLICK(id, func)
handler and do the selection manually. You can even only activate the
handler
if run on "posix" (i.e. unix) systems by using
import os
if os.name == "posix":

Ok Robin, you're right!
The platform is Win32 (Win98) with python 2.2.1 and wxpython 2.3.2.1.
As regards the code, I'm trying to use the method wxTreeCtrl.AppendItem
passing
an item string coming from Postgres: the latter encodes international
characters in the range 128--255, but wxpython (or wxwindows?) does not
accept
such characters.

+1 for this, but in the meantime it's easy to change it manually, since such
default is not in the C++ code, but in the Python one (wx.py,

Are you sure it's a python string that you send to AppendItem?
It's not by any chance a unicode object??? (Buth then I suppose you'd
get "UnicodeError: ASCII encoding error: ordinal not in range(128)"...)
Hm...
What happens if you for instance use "".join(map(chr, range(190,255)))
as a parameter for AppendItem?
