14\wxheading{Event table macros}
15
16To process an idle event, use this event handler macro to direct input to a member
17function that takes a wxIdleEvent argument.

26Idle events can be caught by the wxApp class, or by top-level window classes.

44Tells wxWindows that more processing is required. This function can be called by an OnIdle
45handler for a window or window event handler to indicate that wxApp::OnIdle should
46forward the OnIdle event once more to the application windows. If no window calls this function
47during OnIdle, then the application will remain in a passive event loop (not calling OnIdle) until a
48new event is posted to the application by the windowing system.
