14 A tree control presents information as a hierarchy, with items that may be expanded
15 to show further items. Items in a tree control are referenced by wxTreeItemId handles,
16 which may be tested for validity by calling wxTreeItemId::IsOk.
18 To intercept events from a tree control, use the event table macros described in
\helpref{wxTreeEvent
}{wxtreeevent
}.

}
114 wxTreeCtrl class uses the standard common treeview control under Win32
115 implemented in the system library
{\tt comctl32.dll
}. Some versions of this
116 library are known to have bugs with handling the tree control colours: the
117 usual symptom is that the expanded items leave black (or otherwise incorrectly
118 coloured) background behind them, especially for the controls using non-default background colour. The recommended solution is to upgrade the
{\tt comctl32.dll
}
119 to a newer version: see
120 \urlref{http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?ReleaseID=
11916}{http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?ReleaseID=

353 only the rectangle around the item's label will be returned, otherwise the

358 item is currently invisible.
360 Notice that the rectangle coordinates are logical, not physical ones. So, for
361 example, the x coordinate may be negative if the tree has a horizontal
362 scrollbar and its position is not $
0$.

413 which is opaque for the application but is necessary for the library
414 to make these functions reentrant (i.e. allow more than one
415 enumeration on one and the same object simultaneously). The cookie passed to
