"C. Porter Bassett" <porter@et.byu.edu> asked:
When is it appropriate to use wxStaticBitmap vs. wxBitmap?
They serve totally different purposes. A wxBitmap is an object that is
used to represent a bitmap image, which can then be manipulated or
displayed in any number of different ways. A wxStaticBitmap is a
control (subclass of wxControl), which can be used to display a
wxBitmap. It's roughly analogous to the difference between a wxTextCtrl
(or wxStaticTextCtrl), and a string (python or wxString)--one is the
content, the other is a control used to display it.
