   5 \subsection{Introduction}
   6 wxGrid and its related classes are used for displaying and editing tabular data.

   8 \subsection{Getting started: a simple example}
   9 For simple applications you need only refer to the wxGrid class in your
  10 code.  This example shows how you might create a grid in a frame or
  11 dialog constructor and illustrates some of the formatting functions.

  13 \begin{verbatim}
  14
  15     // Create a wxGrid object
  16
  17     grid = new wxGrid( this,
  18                        -1,
  19                        wxPoint( 0, 0 ),
  20                        wxSize( 400, 300 ) );
  21
  22     // Then we call CreateGrid to set the dimensions of the grid
  23     // (100 rows and 10 columns in this example)
  24     grid->CreateGrid( 100, 10 );
  25
  26     // We can set the sizes of individual rows and columns
  27     // in pixels
  28     grid->SetRowSize( 0, 60 );
  29     grid->SetColSize( 0, 120 );
  30
  31     // And set grid cell contents as strings
  32     grid->SetCellValue( 0, 0, "wxGrid is good" );
  33
  34     // We can specify that some cells are read-only
  35     grid->SetCellValue( 0, 3, "This is read-only" );
  36     grid->SetReadOnly( 0, 3 );
  37
  38     // Colours can be specified for grid cell contents
  39     grid->SetCellValue(3, 3, "green on grey");
  40     grid->SetCellTextColour(3, 3, *wxGREEN);
  41     grid->SetCellBackgroundColour(3, 3, *wxLIGHT_GREY);
  42
  43     // We can specify the some cells will store numeric
  44     // values rather than strings. Here we set grid column 5
  45     // to hold floating point values displayed with width of 6
  46     // and precision of 2
  47     grid->SetColFormatFloat(5, 6, 2);
  48     grid->SetCellValue(0, 6, "3.1415");
