1175 "This event class contains information about keypress and character
1176 events. These events are only sent to the widget that currently has
1179 Notice that there are three different kinds of keyboard events in
1180 wxWidgets: key down and up events and char events. The difference
1181 between the first two is clear - the first corresponds to a key press
1182 and the second to a key release - otherwise they are identical. Just
1183 note that if the key is maintained in a pressed state you will
1184 typically get a lot of (automatically generated) down events but only
1185 one up so it is wrong to assume that there is one up event
1186 corresponding to each down one.
1188 Both key events provide untranslated key codes while the char event
1189 carries the translated one. The untranslated code for alphanumeric
1190 keys is always an upper case value. For the other keys it is one of
1191 WXK_XXX values from the keycodes table. The translated key is, in
1192 general, the character the user expects to appear as the result of the
1193 key combination when typing the text into a text entry zone, for
1196 A few examples to clarify this (all assume that CAPS LOCK is unpressed
1197 and the standard US keyboard): when the 'A' key is pressed, the key
1198 down event key code is equal to ASCII A == 65. But the char event key
1199 code is ASCII a == 97. On the other hand, if you press both SHIFT and
1200 'A' keys simultaneously , the key code in key down event will still be
1201 just 'A' while the char event key code parameter will now be 'A' as
1204 Although in this simple case it is clear that the correct key code
1205 could be found in the key down event handler by checking the value
1206 returned by `ShiftDown`, in general you should use EVT_CHAR for this
1207 as for non alphanumeric keys or non-US keyboard layouts the
1208 translation is keyboard-layout dependent and can only be done properly
1209 by the system itself.
1211 Another kind of translation is done when the control key is pressed:
1212 for example, for CTRL-A key press the key down event still carries the
1213 same key code 'A' as usual but the char event will have key code of 1,
1214 the ASCII value of this key combination.
1216 You may discover how the other keys on your system behave
1217 interactively by running the KeyEvents sample in the wxPython demo and
1218 pressing some keys while the blue box at the top has the keyboard
1221 **Note**: If a key down event is caught and the event handler does not
1222 call event.Skip() then the coresponding char event will not
1223 happen. This is by design and enables the programs that handle both
1224 types of events to be a bit simpler.
1226 **Note for Windows programmers**: The key and char events in wxWidgets
1227 are similar to but slightly different from Windows WM_KEYDOWN and
1228 WM_CHAR events. In particular, Alt-x combination will generate a char
1229 event in wxWidgets (unless it is used as an accelerator).
1231 **Tip**: be sure to call event.Skip() for events that you don't
1232 process in key event function, otherwise menu shortcuts may cease to

1991 Without update UI events, an application has to work hard to
1992 check/uncheck, enable/disable, and set the text for elements such as
1993 menu items and toolbar buttons. The code for doing this has to be
1994 mixed up with the code that is invoked when an action is invoked for a
1995 menu item or button.
1997 With update UI events, you define an event handler to look at the
1998 state of the application and change UI elements accordingly. wxWidgets
1999 will call your handler functions in idle time, so you don't have to
2000 worry where to call this code. In addition to being a clearer and more
2001 declarative method, it also means you don't have to worry whether
2002 you're updating a toolbar or menubar identifier. The same handler can
2003 update a menu item and toolbar button, if the ID values are the same.
2005 Instead of directly manipulating the menu or button, you call
2006 functions in the event object, such as `Check`. wxWidgets will
2007 determine whether such a call has been made, and which UI element to
2010 These events will work for popup menus as well as menubars. Just
2011 before a menu is popped up, `wx.Menu.UpdateUI` is called to process
2012 any UI events for the window that owns the menu.
2014 If you find that the overhead of UI update processing is affecting
2015 your application, you can do one or both of the following:
2017 1. Call `wx.UpdateUIEvent.SetMode` with a value of
2018 wx.UPDATE_UI_PROCESS_SPECIFIED, and set the extra style
2019 wx.WS_EX_PROCESS_UPDATE_EVENTS for every window that should
2020 receive update events. No other windows will receive update
2023 2. Call `wx.UpdateUIEvent.SetUpdateInterval` with a millisecond
2024 value to set the delay between updates. You may need to call
2025 `wx.Window.UpdateWindowUI` at critical points, for example when
2026 a dialog is about to be shown, in case the user sees a slight
2027 delay before windows are updated.
2029 Note that although events are sent in idle time, defining a EVT_IDLE
2030 handler for a window does not affect this because the events are sent
2031 from an internal idle handler.
2033 wxWidgets tries to optimize update events on some platforms. On
2034 Windows and GTK+, events for menubar items are only sent when the menu
