+<h1><a name="id1">2.5.3.1</a></h1>
+<p>wxMac focus and border refreshes corrected.</p>
+<p>Updated internal PNG library.</p>
+<p>wxMac fix for metal appearance on wx.ToolBar.</p>
+<p>wx.grid.Grid fix allowing DoGetBestSize to be called before CreateGrid
+(which means that a min size doesn't need to be specified.)</p>
+<p>wxMac fix for not sending a native click to a control if it is not
+enabled (does an enable itself)</p>
+<p>Added wx.lib.ogl.DrawnShape, and fixed various little bugs in the new
+OGL.</p>
+<p>Added support to XRC and XRCed for the 3-state checkbox flags and also
+for wx.ToggleButton. Updated the generic window styles supported by
+XRCed.</p>
+<p>It is now possible to create "stock" buttons. Basically this means
+that you only have to provide one of the stock IDs (and either an
+empty label or a label that matches the stock label) when creating the
+button and wxWidgets will choose the stock label to go with it
+automatically. Additionally on the platforms that have a native
+concept of a stock button (currently only GTK2) then the native stock
+button will be used. For example, the following will result in a
+button with "Cancel" as the label and an accelerator on the "C", and
+if run on wxGTK2 then there will also be an image of a red X:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+b = wx.Button(parent, wx.ID_CANCEL)
+</pre>
+<p>Added wx.lib.ticker.Ticker class from Chris Mellon.</p>
+<p>Fix some incorrect clipping regions in wxSTC on wxGTK.</p>
+<p>Added wrapper for wx.grid.Grid.GetOrCreateCellAttr.</p>
+<p>Removed my copy of distutils from the wxPython source tree. Now that
+I am no longer doing builds on Python 2.1 the newest distutils is no
+longer needed. (There is still one small bug in Python 2.2 distutils
+on win32, but it is easily worked around.) This sovles the problem of
+incorrect builds on some systems where the system installed distutils
+has been patched to behave slightly differently, for example SuSE on
+x86_64 or Chandler's build.</p>
+<p>Updated to SWIG 1.3.22 (plus my patch.) See wxPython/SWIG/README.txt
+in the source tree if you need to use SWIG when building your own copy
+of wxPython, or other extension modules that need to integrate with
+the wxPython modules.</p>
+<p>Added wx.Frame.RequestUserAttention which, if the platform suports it,
+will do something (such as flash the task bar item) to suggest to the
+user that they should look at that window.</p>
+<p>"Fixed" wx.grid.Grid.SetDefaultEditor and SetDefaultRenderer by making
+them register the editor or renderer for the "string" data type.</p>
+<p>Added depth param to wx.Image.ConvertToBitmap.</p>
+<p>Extended the wx.calendar.CalendarCtrl class with methods that get/set
+a Python datetime or date object. (These will only work with Python
+2.3+) The methods are PySetDate, PyGetDate, PySetLowerDateLimit,
+PySetUpperDateLimit, PySetDateRange, PyGetLowerDateLimit, and
+PyGetUpperDateLimit. Also, CalendarEvent was extended with PySetDate
+and PyGetDate methods.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: SetBackgroundColour on a wx.Choice or a wx.ComboBox will now
+also set the colour of the dropdown.</p>
+<p>wxMac: MessageDialog now supports wx.NO_DEFAULT style</p>
+<p>wxMSW: added AssociateHandle and DissociateHandle to wx.Window</p>
+<p>wxMac: fix for toolbar tooltips</p>
+<p>wx.Sizer.Show (and Hide) now take an optional parameter specifying if
+the item to be shown should be searched for recursivly in subsizers,
+and return a boolean value indicating if the item was found.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: fixed MaximizeEvent generation in wx.Frame</p>
+<p>wxMSW: fixed sending duplicate EVT_COMBOBOX events</p>
+<p>Smoother time estimation updates in wx.ProgressDialog (patch 992813)</p>
+<p>Made wx.Listbook events more consistent with wx.Notebook ones (patch
+1001271)</p>
+<p>Fixed rounding errors in variable status bar panes widths computation
+(patch 1030021)</p>
+<p>Added possibility to specify printer bin (patch 910272)</p>
+<p>wxMSW: fixed wx.ListCtrl's SetWindowStyleFlag() to not remove
+WS_VISIBLE; also refresh the control automatically (closes bug
+1019440)</p>
+<p>Added wx.Choicebook, yet another notebook-like control.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: Make radiobutton tab behaviour the same on MSW as in standard
+MSW app, i.e. tab into the activated, not necessarily the first radio
+button.</p>
+<p>Added limited support for wxEventLoop (you can't derive from a
+wx.PyEventLoop version yet...) Updated and moved the sample showing
+how to replace the MainLoop to samples/mainloop/mainloop.py.</p>
+<p>The C++ xrc lib has been moved out of contrib and into the core, so it
+is always built by default. wxPython's build has also changed
+accordingly and will build the xrc module as part of the core set of
+modules built by default. If you were axplicitly using BUILD_XRC then
+it will no longer be recognized as a build option, otherwise you
+should notice no difference.</p>
+<p>wxMac: Fixed radio toolbar buttons to correctly untoggle the others
+when a new one is selected.</p>
+<p>wxMac: Fixed GetLineLength and GetLineText for MLTE text controls</p>
+<p>wxMac: wx.TaskBarIcon is implemented by allowing you to change the
+app's icon on the Dock and also specifying a menu that should be
+merged with the normal dock popup menu. See the MigrationGuide for
+more details and a warning.</p>
+<p>Added wx.TopLevelWindow.IsActive() which tells you if the frame or
+dialog is or containts the active window with the keyboard focus.</p>
+<p>Added ability to create a font based on pixel size rather than point
+size via the FontFromPixelSize constructor.</p>
+<p>Updated the Scintilla used by StyledTextCtrl to version 1.61</p>
+<p>Improved image HitTest for TreeListCtrl.</p>
+<p>Added wx.App.IsMainLoopRunning.</p>
+<p>wxGTK: Make wxComboBox spit out a bit fewer surplus events when
+holding down the mouse button.</p>
+<p>wxGTK: Enable key based navigation through notebook tabs as in the
+native control with Left and right keys. Support for vetoing.</p>
