wxVScrolledWindow

Hello NG,

    I was searching for a scrolledwindow that is able to scroll lines
with variable heights. I found wxVScrolledWindow, but the docs are
saying that this particular window does not support horizontal
scrolling. I heard few months ago about a variant of this control
called wxHVScrolledWindow, but I am unable to find that widget. It
doesn't exist in wxPython, nor in wxWidgets.
Am I missing something? Is there a way I can achieve what I am looking
for? Does anyone know where I may find the source of
wxHVScrolledWindow?

Thank you for every hint.

Andrea.

Google turned up this here, http://wiki.wxwidgets.org/docbrowse.cgi/wxwin_wxhvscrolledwindow.html . It seems to indicate there is/was a file called <wx/vscroll.h> in the c++ version.

Hi Matthias,

Yes, I found the same thing. The problem is, the CVS snapshot I
downloaded *yesterday* does not contain any wxHVScrolledWindow, but
only wxVscrolledWindow. I think I am missing something... unless the
docs are more updated than the sources :smiley:

It was in the code base for a short time, but was removed because it was mostly a copy/paste of the wxVScrolledWindow with no refactoring to share common code between the two classes. The original patch author was requested to do the refactoring and resubmit the patch, but that hasn't happened yet.
