wxPython/wx/tools/XRCed/CHANGES.txt

   1 0.1.8-5
   2 -------
   3
   4 Preferences for default "sizeritem" parameters for new panels and
   5 controls can be configured ("File">"Preferences...").
   6
   7 Implemented comment object for including simple one-line comments and
   8 comment directives as tree nodes. No validation is performed for a
   9 valid XML string so comments must not contain "-->". Comment directive
  10 is a special comment starting with '%' character, followed by a line
  11 of python code. It is executed using 'exec' when the resource file is
  12 opened. This is useful to import plugin modules containing custom
  13 handlers which are specific to the resource file, hovewer this is of
  14 course a security hole if you use foreign XRC files. A warning is
  15 displayed if the preference option 'ask' is selected (by default).
  16
  17 Added support for custom controls and plugin modules. Refer to this
  18 wxPythonWiki for the details:
  19         http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/XRCed#custom
  20
  21 Tool panel sections can be collapsed/expanded by clicking on the
  22 label of a tool group.
  23
  24 Some undo/redo and other fixes.
  25
  26 0.1.8-4
  27 -------
  28
  29 Fixes for wxMSW (notebook highlighting, control sizes, tree Unselect).
  30
  31 0.1.8-3
  32 -------
  33
  34 Notebook page highlighting fix. Highlight resizes when the window
  35 is resized. ParamUnit spin button detects event handler re-entry
  36 (wxGTK probably has a bug in wxSpinButton with repeated events).
  37
  38 0.1.8-2
  39 -------
  40
  41 Fix for dealing with empty 'growable' property, using MiniFrame
  42 for properties panel, the panel is restored together with the
  43 main window.
  44
  45 0.1.8-1
  46 -------
  47
  48 Fixed SetItemBold and editing 'growable' properties of
  49 wxFlexGridSizer.
  50
  51 0.1.8-0
  52 -------
  53
  54 New feature added from a patch submitted on sourceforge by botg:
  55 moving of tree items.
  56
  57 Bugs fixed:
  58 - ChecklistBox content editing;
  59 - Window styles more in sync with the docs;
  60 - Replacing items;
  61 - Reference property page created correctly (every property is
  62   optional).
  63
  64 0.1.7-5
  65 -------
  66
  67 Fix for non-ascii characters support when using other encodings
  68 than utf-8 in 'content' property. Tested under unicode build.
  69
  70 0.1.7-4
  71 -------
  72
  73 Second fix for Copy/Paste (using expat.native_encoding property).
  74 Added cellpos,cellspan properties for Spacer in GridBag sizer.
  75
  76 0.1.7-3
  77 -------
  78
  79 Fix for Copy/Paste objects with international characters.
  80
  81 0.1.7-2
  82 -------
  83
  84 Fixed Cut command, added support for MenuBar inside Frame/Dialog.
  85
  86 0.1.7-1
  87 -------
  88
  89 Important update of Paste command code which was passing too much data
  90 thru clipboard using cPickle. Objects created while unpickling (from
  91 minidom) were clogging memory. Now using toxml() (why didn't I do it
  92 before - was I drunk or what? :) ).
  93
  94 0.1.7-0
  95 -------
  96
  97 Added new controls (Choicebook, Listbook, StatusBar, DatePicker), and
  98 completed style flags. Test window is opened for an available parent
  99 control if no specific view defined. Better handling of exceptions
 100 (highlighting does not 'stick' anymore). Tested on wxGTK 2.6.1.0.
 101
 102 0.1.6-7
 103 -------
 104
 105 Using system clipboard for Copy/Paste.
 106
 107 0.1.6-6
 108 -------
 109
 110 Improved some dialogs (window styles, growable cols). Changed the
 111 range for wxSpinCtrl min/max to all integers (default 0/100 is not
 112 always good).
 113
 114 0.1.6-5
 115 -------
 116
 117 Fixed testing for any element inside object tree.
 118
 119 0.1.6-4
 120 -------
 121
 122 Fixed replacing op for sizer children and spacer objects.
 123 UndoReplace is not yet implemented.
 124
 125 0.1.6-3

 127
 128 Fix for crash when opening new file with active tree selection.
 129 Replacing controls bug fixed.
 130
 131 0.1.6-2
 132 -------
 133
 134 wxMSW wxTreeCtrl behaviour is still different from wxGTK for
 135 wxTR_MULTIPLE, some fixes for this.
 136
 137 0.1.6-1
 138 -------
 139
 140 New (experimental ;) ) feature: support for "object_ref" tag, for
 141 creating references to named objects (see tn0014.txt). "reference..."
 142 menu command creates new object_ref node. Properties of the top-level
 143 object can be overriden, but overriding child controls is not working
 144 as expected (maybe a bug in wx).
 145
 146 0.1.5-3
 147 -------
 148
 149 xxxStdDialogButtonSizer pulldown menu with standard buttons.
 150
 151 Some fixes for selecting tools inside toolbar with test window open
 152 (whole toolbar is selected).
 153
 154 Toolbars can be added inside windows.
 155
 156 0.1.5-2
 157 -------
 158
 159 Using wx.GetDefaultPyEncoding/wx.SetDefaultPyEncoding for changing active encoding.
 160
 161 Fixed pasting siblings (Ctrl key pressed while pasting).
 162
 163 Dealed with ascii build (Python does not recognize 'ascii' as valid encoding).
 164 If encoding is not specified it is not written in XRC. Will add more
 165 customization in the future.
 166
 167 Changed to use SimpleTool instead or Toggle tool (does not work on Win32).
 168
 169 0.1.5-1
 170 -------
 171
 172 Added wxWizard, wxWizardPageSimple (only from pull-down menu).
 173
 174 Hide command for test window.

 181 -------
 182
 183 Edit->Locate command (Ctrl-L) for quick selection of items.
 184 Works with event-handling controls (buttons, text fields) but
 185 not with labels/sizers.
 186
 187 Some improvements: relative paths for files supplied as command-
 188 line argument work correctly, notebook panels are highlighted
 189 better.
 190
 191 0.1.2-1
 192 _______
 193

 230 wxHtmlWindow).
 231
 232 0.1.1-1
 233 -------
 234
 235 Changed internationalization support. '-i' option removed, default
 236 encoding is used (should be defined in sitecustomize.py, or 'ascii' by
 237 default). When XRC file is opened with encoding specified,
 238 translations are not used.
 239
 240 0.1.1
 241 -----
 242
 243 Replace command added (not quite finished yet).
 244
 245 0.1.0
 246 -----
 247
 248 Finally implemented tools panel for almost all controls (except
 249 wxHtmlWindow, wxCalendarCtrl and wxGenericDirCtrl - they are too
 250 rarely used).
 251
 252 Changed some sizes in panel to better work with different fonts.
 253
 254 Fixed double-refreshing after Ctrl+R.
 255
 256 Maybe something else that I've forgot. It's been a looong day... :)

 301 Support for toolbars inside panels and frames.
 302

 318 Added new controls: wxSpinCtrl, wxGenericDirCtrl, unknown (custom
 319 control), improved wxXRC format suppor (menu styles, etc.).
 320
 321 Some I18N support: parsing "encoding" attribute in XML header, later
 322 it can be modified in "properties" panel for "XML tree".
 323
 324 UNIX note: currently XML writing for non-ascii chars works only if
 325 sys.getdefaultencoding() returns good value. To do this, one has to
 326 put following lines to "sitecustomize.py" file:
 327
 328 # Start code segment
 329 import sys
 330 sys.setdefaultencoding('iso-8859-1')    # or whatever
 331 # End code segment

 351 wxWin):
 352
 353 contrib/src/xrc/xmlrsall.cpp
 354 45,46c45,46
 355 <     AddHandler(new wxListCtrlXmlHandler);
 356 < #if CHECKLISTBOX
 357 ---
 358 >     AddHandler(new wxListCtrlXmlHandler);
 359 > #if wxUSE_CHECKLISTBOX
 360
