a vanilla wxGrid seems to have a problem with arrow-key navigation after
a cell has been edited. given the following code:
from wxPython.wx import *
from wxPython.grid import *
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = wxPySimpleApp()
f = wxFrame(None, -1, 'simple app')
f.Show(true)
g = wxGrid(f, -1)
g.CreateGrid(5, 5)
app.MainLoop()
when i run this (wxPython 2.3.2.1 and Python 2.1.1 on a 2.4.2 Linux
box), the cursor starts on cell (0,0) and i can move the cursor from
cell to cell with arrow keys, that tab key, and the enter key. then i
enter a field (2 mouse clicks), get an edit cursor, edit (or not), and
either finish (with tab or enter) or abort (esc) the edit.
at this point, the enter and tab keys still navigate, but the arrow keys
don't. i can only get arrow key navigation back by clicking a cell with
the mouse.
is this something i'm doing wrong (not doing right), or is this a
problem with wxGrid?

This is an issue with SetFocus that I'll be checking in a fix for shortly.

FYI: just tested: arrow keys doesn't work here after start up. One have to
select some grid with the mouse before arrow keys start functioning.
