20 *masked.Ctrl* is actually a factory function for several types of
21 masked edit controls:
22
23 ================= =========================================================
24 masked.TextCtrl standard masked edit text box
25 masked.ComboBox adds combobox capabilities
26 masked.IpAddrCtrl adds logical input semantics for IP address entry
27 masked.TimeCtrl special subclass handling lots of time formats as values
28 masked.NumCtrl special subclass handling numeric values
29 ================= =========================================================
30
31 masked.Ctrl works by looking for a special *controlType*
32 parameter in the variable arguments of the control, to determine
33 what kind of instance to return.
34 controlType can be one of::
35
36 controlTypes.TEXT
37 controlTypes.COMBO
38 controlTypes.IPADDR
39 controlTypes.TIME
40 controlTypes.NUMBER
41
42 These constants are also available individually, ie, you can
43 use either of the following::
44
45 from wxPython.wx.lib.masked import Ctrl, COMBO, TEXT, NUMBER, TIME
46 from wxPython.wx.lib.masked import Ctrl, controlTypes
47
48 If not specified as a keyword argument, the default controlType is
49 controlTypes.TEXT.
50
51 Each of the above classes has its own unique arguments, but Masked.Ctrl
52 provides a single "unified" interface for masked controls.
