23 DocStr(wxAboutDialogInfo,
24 "`wx.AboutDialogInfo` contains information to be shown in the standard
25 About dialog displayed by the `wx.AboutBox` function. This class
26 contains the general information about the program, such as its name,
27 version, copyright and so on, as well as lists of the program
28 developers, documentation writers, artists and translators.
30 While all the main platforms have a native implementation of the about
31 dialog, they are often more limited than the generic version provided
32 by wxWidgets and so the generic version is used if
33 `wx.AboutDialogInfo` has any fields not supported by the native
34 version. Currently GTK+ version supports all the possible fields
35 natively but MSW and Mac versions don't support URLs, licence text nor
36 custom icons in the about dialog and if either of those is used,
37 wxAboutBox() will automatically use the generic version so you should
38 avoid specifying these fields to achieve more native look and feel.
