the system. This can include settings such as standard colours, fonts,
and user interface element sizes.

\membersection{wxSystemSettings::wxSystemSettings}

\func{}{wxSystemSettings}{\void}

Default constructor. You don't need to create an instance of wxSystemSettings
since all of its functions are static.
