<h1 class="title">Recent Changes for wxPython</h1>
<div class="section">
-<h1><a id="id1" name="id1">2.7.1.2</a></h1>
+<h1><a id="id1" name="id1">2.8.0.1</a></h1>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>11-Dec-2006</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Lots of fixes and updates to the AUI classes.</p>
+<p>Added wx.CollapsiblePane. On wxGTK it uses a native expander widget,
+on the other platforms a regular button is used to control the
+collapsed/expanded state.</p>
+<p>Added the wx.combo module, which contains the ComboCtrl and ComboPopup
+classes. These classes allow you to implement a wx.ComboBox-like
+widget where the popup can be nearly any kind of widget, and where you
+have a lot of control over other aspects of the combo widget as well.
+It works very well on GTK and MSW, using native renderers for drawing
+the combo button, but is unfortunatly still a bit klunky on OSX...</p>
+<p>Use system default paper size for printing instead of A4 by default.</p>
+<p>Added wx.combo.OwnerDrawnComboBox, which is a ComboCtrl that delegates
+the drawing of the items in the popup and in the control itself to
+overridden methods of a derived class, similarly to how wx.VListBox
+works.</p>
+<p>Added wx.combo.BitmapComboBox which is a combobox that displays a
+bitmap in front of the list items.</p>
+<p>Added the wx.lib.mixins.inspect module. It contains the InspectMixin
+class which can be mixed with a wx.App class and provides a PyCrust
+window that can be activated with a Ctrl-Alt-I keystroke (or Cmd-Alt-I
+on the Mac.)</p>
+<p>Added some modules from Riaan Booysen:</p>
+<blockquote>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>wx.lib.flagart: contains icons of the flags of many countries.</li>
+<li>wx.lib.art.img2pyartprov: makes images embedded in a python file
+with img2py available via the wx.ArtProvider.</li>
+<li>wx.lib.langlistctrl: A wx.ListCtrl for selecting a language,
+which uses the country flag icons.</li>
+<li>An I18N sample for the demo.</li>
+</ul>
+</blockquote>
+<p>wx.lib.masked: Patch from Will Sadkin. Includes Unicode fixes, plus
+more helpful exceptions and ability to designate fields in mask
+without intervening fixed characters.</p>
+<p>Added wx.SearchCtrl, which is a composite of a wx.TextCtrl with optional
+bitmap buttons and a drop-down menu. Controls like this can typically
+be found on a toolbar of applications that support some form of search
+functionality. On the Mac this control is implemented using the
+native HISearchField control, on the other platforms a generic control
+is used, although that may change in the future as more platforms
+introduce native search widgets.</p>
+<p>Added a set of button classes to wx.lib.buttons from David Hughes that
+uses the native renderer to draw the button.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="section">
+<h1><a id="id2" name="id2">2.7.2.0</a></h1>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>7-Nov-2006</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Patch [ 1583183 ] Fixes printing/print preview inconsistencies</p>
+<p>Add events API to wxHtmlWindow (patch #1504493 by Francesco Montorsi)</p>
+<p>Added wxTB_RIGHT style for right-aligned toolbars (Igor Korot)</p>
+<p>Added New Zealand NZST and NZDT timezone support to wx.DateTime.</p>
+<p>wx.Window.GetAdjustedBestSize is deprecated. In every conceivable
+scenario GetEffectiveMinSize is probably what you want to use instead.</p>
+<p>wx.Image: Gained support for TGA image file format.</p>
+<p>wx.aui: The classes in the wx.aui module have been renamed to be more
+consistent with each other, and make it easier to recognize in the
+docs and etc. that they belong together.</p>
+<blockquote>
+FrameManager --> AuiManager
+FrameManagerEvent --> AuiManagerEvent
+PaneInfo --> AuiPaneInfo
+FloatingPane --> AuiFloatingPane
+DockArt --> AuiDockArt
+TabArt --> AuiTabArt
+AuiMultiNotebook --> AuiNotebook
+AuiNotebookEvent --> AuiNotebookEvent</blockquote>
+<p>wx.lib.customtreectrl: A patch from Frank Niessink which adds an
+additional style (TR_AUTO_CHECK_PARENT) that (un)checks a parent when
+all children are (un)checked.</p>
+<p>wx.animate.AnimationCtrl fixed to display inactive bitmap at start
+(patch 1590192)</p>
+<p>Patch from Dj Gilcrease adding the FNB_HIDE_ON_SINGLE_TAB style flag
+for wx.lib.flatnotebook.</p>
+<p>wx.Window.GetBestFittingSize has been renamed to GetEffectiveMinSize.
+SetBestFittingSize has been renamed to SetInitialSize, since it is
+most often used only to set the initial (and minimal) size of a
+widget.</p>
+<p>The QuickTime backend for wx.media.MediaCtrl on MS Windows works
+again. Just pass szBackend=wx.media.MEDIABACKEND_QUICKTIME to the
+constructor to use it instead of the default ActiveMovie backend,
+(assuming the quicktime DLLs are available on the system.)</p>

+<div class="section">
+<h1><a id="id3" name="id3">2.7.1.3</a></h1>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>26-Oct-2006</li>
+</ul>
+<p>wxGTK: The wx.ALWAYS_SHOW_SB style is now supported.</p>
+<p>Fixed name errors in the old wxPython package namespace. As a
+reminder, use of this package is deprecated and you are encouraged to
+switch your programs over to the wx package.</p>
+<p>Fixed wx.glcanvas.GLCanvas.SetCurrent to be compatible with prevoius
+versons.</p>
+<p>Added wx.StandardPaths.GetTmpDir.</p>
+<p>Bug fixes in the wx.ListCtrl on Mac from Kevin Olivier, allowing it to
+send events properly again. There is also a new native implementation
+of wx.ListCtrl available, which will be used for wx.LC_REPORT style
+list controls if you set the "mac.listctrl.always_use_generic"
+SystemOption to zero. In a future release this will be the default.</p>
+<p>Added a sample to the demo that shows some of what can be done with
+the new wx.GraphicsContext and wx.GraphicsPath classes.</p>

project. This has resulted in some minor API changes, most of which
were worked around in the wrapper code.</p>
<p>Added wx.lib.delayedresult from Oliver Schoenborn.</p>
-<p>Added wx.lib.expando, a multi-line textctrl that exands as more lines
+<p>Added wx.lib.expando, a multi-line textctrl that expands as more lines
are needed.</p>
<p>wx.Image.Scale and Rescale methods now take an extra parameter
specifying type of method to use for resampling the image. It
provide a way to show a standard About box for the application, which
will either be a native dialog or a generic one depending on what info
is provided and if it can all be shown with the native dialog.</p>
-<p>The code in the animate contrib has been moved into the code wxWidgets
+<p>The code in the animate contrib has been moved into the core wxWidgets
library, and refactored a bit along the way. For wxPython it still
exists in the wx.animate module, but has basically been reduced to two
classes, wx.animate.Animation, and wx.animate.AnimationCtrl. You load
wx.Window.IsDoubleBuffered method.</p>
