<h1 class="title">Recent Changes for wxPython</h1>
<div class="section" id="id1">
-<h1><a name="id1">2.6.0.0</a></h1>
+<h1><a name="id1">2.6.0.1</a></h1>
+<p>Added wx.BrushFromBitmap to create a stippled brush in a single step.
+Also added missing brysh style flags: wx.STIPPLE_MASK
+wx.STIPPLE_MASK_OPAQUE.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: Fix for default control colours when the system text fg colour
+is not black.</p>
+<p>wxGTK: Patch #1171754, It is now possible to have a menu item that
+both has an icon and is a submenu.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: Patch #1197009, better refreshes when windows are moved and
+resized.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: Patch #1197468. Keeps track of pending size/position changes
+in case there is more than one adjustment for a window in a single
+DeferWindowPos set, then the pending values can be used for defaults
+instead of current values.</p>
+<p>Fixed the typemap that converts a Python list of strings to a
+wxArrayString so it uses the wxPython default encoding.</p>
+<p>Several docstrings added and updated. Lots more to go.</p>
+<p>wxMac: Strings added to the clipboard or used in DnD no longer have an
+extra null character at the end.</p>
+<p>Added wx.GetXDisplay that returns a raw swigified pointer for the X11
+Display, or None for the non-X11 platforms.</p>
+<p>wxMenu: Don't send an event when selecting an already selected radio
+item.</p>
+<p>Added wx.LaunchDefaultBrowser.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: Fixed erroneous selection of content in wx.ComboBox when within
+a wx.StaticBox.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: Fixed alpha blitting to take into account source position.</p>
+<p>Ensure that Python is still in an initialized state before doing any
+locking or unlocking in wxPyBeginBlockThreads and wxPyEndBlockThreads
+as these can be triggered after Python has been finalized in embedding
+situations.</p>
+<p>Added alternate constructors for wx.Font: wx.FontFromPixelSize,
+wx.FFont, wx.FFontFromPixelSize. See the docstrings or new api docs
+for details.</p>
+<p>Added wx.lib.hyperlink from Andrea Gavana. It is a control like
+static text that acts like a hyper-link, launching the system's
+default browser in response to the clicks.</p>
+<p>Added an optional parameter to wxversion.select that allows you to
+specify that the extra components specified in the version string are
+required. For example, if you ask for "2.6-unicode" but only the ansi
+version is installed then by default the ansi version will be selected
+as it considered close enough since the version numbers match. If you
+want to force the options to be required then you can just add a True
+parameter, like this:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+import wxversion
+wxversion.select("2.6-unicode", True)
+import wx
+</pre>
+<p>Tweaked wx.lib.buttons such that flat buttons (e.g. have no bevel and
+a wx.BORDER_NONE style flag) paint themed backgrounds if there are
+transparent areas and the parent is displaying a theme.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: Fix for wrong sash colour of wx.SplitterWindow in the silver
+theme on XP.</p>
+<p>Added a wx.xrc.XmlResourceHandler for the Ticker class. See
+wx/lib/ticker_xrc.py</p>
+<p>wxSTC: Fixed CmdKeyAssign key bindings for Ctrl-Backspace.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: Fixed a bug in wx.TextCtrl where all the lines were being used
+to calculate the best size, instead of using a reasonable limit.</p>

auto-dismiss when the mouse is clicked outside of the popup like it is
supposed to.</p>

is a tag handler in the library at wxPython.lib.wxpTag that
class instead of wxPyOnDemandOutputWindow you can either implement
RedirectStdio() in you app class or change the value of
wxApp.outputWindowClass like this:</p>
-<blockquote>
-<dl>
-<dt>class MyApp(wxApp):</dt>
-<dd><p class="first">outputWindowClass = MyClass</p>
-<dl class="last">
-<dt>def OnInit(self):</dt>
-<dd>frame = MyFrame()
-self.SetTopWindow(frame)
-return true</dd>
-</dl>
-</dd>

+ def OnInit(self):
+ frame = MyFrame()
+ self.SetTopWindow(frame)
+ return true

<p>Please see the implementation of wxPyOnDemandOutputWindow and wxApp in
wx.py for more details. A few words of caution: if you are running
your app in a debugger, changing sys.stdout and sys.stderr is likely
