19 <P>
20 <B>MaskedCtrl</B> is actually a factory function for several types of
21 masked edit controls:
22 <P>
23 <UL>
24 <LI><b>MaskedTextCtrl</b> - standard masked edit text box</LI>
25 <LI><b>MaskedComboBox</b> - adds combobox capabilities</LI>
26 <LI><b>IpAddrCtrl</b> - adds logical input semantics for IP address entry</LI>
27 <LI><b>TimeCtrl</b> - special subclass handling lots of time formats as values</LI>
28 <LI><b>MaskedNumCtrl</b> - special subclass handling numeric values</LI>
29 </UL>
30 <P>
31 <B>MaskedCtrl</B> works by looking for a special <b><i>controlType</i></b>
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 <PRE><FONT SIZE=-1>
36 controlTypes.MASKEDTEXT
37 controlTypes.MASKEDCOMBO
38 controlTypes.IPADDR
39 controlTypes.TIME
40 controlTypes.NUMBER
41 </FONT></PRE>
42 These constants are also available individually, ie, you can
43 use either of the following:
44 <PRE><FONT SIZE=-1>
45 from wxPython.wx.lib.maskedctrl import MaskedCtrl, MASKEDCOMBO, MASKEDTEXT, NUMBER
46 from wxPython.wx.lib.maskedctrl import MaskedCtrl, controlTypes
47 </FONT></PRE>
48 If not specified as a keyword argument, the default controlType is
49 controlTypes.MASKEDTEXT.
50 <P>
51 Each of the above classes has its own unique arguments, but MaskedCtrl
52 provides a single "unified" interface for masked controls. MaskedTextCtrl,
53 MaskedComboBox and IpAddrCtrl are all documented below; the others have
54 their own demo pages and interface descriptions.
