23 @class wxWizardPage
24
25 wxWizardPage is one of the screens in wxWizard: it must know what are the
26 following and preceding pages (which may be @NULL for the first/last page).
27 Except for this extra knowledge, wxWizardPage is just a
28 panel, so the controls may be placed directly on it in the usual way.
29
30 This class allows the programmer to decide the order of pages in the wizard
31 dynamically (during run-time) and so provides maximal flexibility.
32 Usually, however, the order of pages is known in advance in which case
33 wxWizardPageSimple class is enough and it is simpler to use.
34
35
36 @section wizardpage_virtuals Virtual functions to override
37
38 To use this class, you must override wxWizardPage::GetPrev() and
39 wxWizardPage::GetNext() pure virtual functions (or you may use
40 wxWizardPageSimple instead).
41 wxWizardPage::GetBitmap() can also be overridden, but this should be very
42 rarely needed.

278 @class wxWizard
279
280 wxWizard is the central class for implementing 'wizard-like' dialogs.
281 These dialogs are mostly familiar to Windows users and are nothing other than a
282 sequence of 'pages', each displayed inside a dialog which has the buttons to
283 navigate to the next (and previous) pages.
284
285 The wizards are typically used to decompose a complex dialog into several
286 simple steps and are mainly useful to the novice users, hence it is important
287 to keep them as simple as possible.
288
289 To show a wizard dialog, you must first create an instance of the wxWizard class
290 using either the non-default constructor or a default one followed by call to the
291 wxWizard::Create function. Then you should add all pages you want the wizard to
292 show and call wxWizard::RunWizard().
293 Finally, don't forget to call @c "wizard->Destroy()", otherwise your application
294 will hang on exit due to an undestroyed window.
295
296 You can supply a bitmap to display on the left of the wizard, either for all pages
297 or for individual pages. If you need to have the bitmap resize to the height of
298 the wizard, call wxWizard::SetBitmapPlacement() and if necessary,
299 wxWizard::SetBitmapBackgroundColour() and wxWizard::SetMinimumBitmapWidth().
300
301 To make wizard pages scroll when the display is too small to fit the whole
302 dialog, you can switch layout adaptation on globally with
303 wxDialog::EnableLayoutAdaptation() or per dialog with wxDialog::SetLayoutAdaptationMode().
304 For more about layout adaptation, see @ref overview_dialog_autoscrolling.
305
306 @beginEventEmissionTable{wxWizardEvent}
307 For some events, Veto() can be called to prevent the event from happening.
308 @event{EVT_WIZARD_PAGE_CHANGED(id, func)}
309 The page has just been changed (this event cannot be vetoed).
310 @event{EVT_WIZARD_PAGE_CHANGING(id, func)}
311 The page is being changed (this event can be vetoed).
312 @event{EVT_WIZARD_BEFORE_PAGE_CHANGED(id, func)}
313 Called after Next is clicked but before GetNext is called. Unlike EVT_WIZARD_CHANGING,
314 the handler for this function can change state that might affect the return value of
315 GetNext. This event can be vetoed.
316 @event{EVT_WIZARD_PAGE_SHOWN(id, func)}
317 The page was shown and laid out (this event cannot be vetoed).
318 @event{EVT_WIZARD_CANCEL(id, func)}
319 The user attempted to cancel the wizard (this event may also be vetoed).
320 @event{EVT_WIZARD_HELP(id, func)}
