  48
  49     A collapsible pane is a container with an embedded button-like control which
  50     can be
  51     used by the user to collapse or expand the pane's contents.
  52
  53     Once constructed you should use the wxCollapsiblePane::GetPane
  54     function to access the pane and add your controls inside it (i.e. use the
  55     wxCollapsiblePane::GetPane's returned pointer as parent for the
  56     controls which must go in the pane, NOT the wxCollapsiblePane itself!).
  57
  58     Note that because of its nature of control which can dynamically (and
  59     drastically)
  60     change its size at run-time under user-input, when putting wxCollapsiblePane
  61     inside
  62     a wxSizer you should be careful to add it with a proportion value
  63     of zero; this is because otherwise all other windows with non-null proportion
  64     values
  65     would automatically get resized each time the user expands or collapse the pane
  66     window
  67     resulting usually in a weird, flickering effect.
  68
  69     Usage sample:
  70
  71     @code
  72     wxCollapsiblePane *collpane = new wxCollapsiblePane(this, wxID_ANY,
  73     wxT("Details:"));
  74
  75         // add the pane with a zero proportion value to the 'sz' sizer which
  76     contains it
  77         sz-Add(collpane, 0, wxGROW|wxALL, 5);
  78
  79         // now add a test label in the collapsible pane using a sizer to layout it:
  80         wxWindow *win = collpane-GetPane();
  81         wxSizer *paneSz = new wxBoxSizer(wxVERTICAL);
  82         paneSz-Add(new wxStaticText(win, wxID_ANY, wxT("test!")), 1, wxGROW|wxALL,
  83     2);
  84         win-SetSizer(paneSz);
  85         paneSz-SetSizeHints(win);
  86     @endcode
  87
  88     It is only available if @c wxUSE_COLLPANE is set to 1 (the default).
  89
  90     @beginStyleTable
  91     @style{wxCP_DEFAULT_STYLE}
  92            The default style: 0.
