+<p>The wx.Menu methods that add items to a wx.Menu have been modified
+such that they return a reference to the wx.MenuItem that was created.
+Additionally menu items and toolbar items have been modified to
+automatically generate a new ID if -1 is given, similar to using -1
+with window classess. This means that you can create menu or toolbar
+items and event bindings without having to predefine a unique menu ID,
+although you still can use IDs just like before if you want. For
+example, these are all equivallent other than ID values:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+1.
+ item = menu.Append(-1, "E&xit", "Terminate the App")
+ self.Bind(wx.EVT_MENU, self.OnExit, item)
+
+2.
+ item = menu.Append(wx.ID_EXIT, "E&xit", "Terminate the App")
+ self.Bind(wx.EVT_MENU, self.OnExit, item)
+
+3.
+ menu.Append(wx.ID_EXIT, "E&xit", "Terminate the App")
+ self.Bind(wx.EVT_MENU, self.OnExit, id=wx.ID_EXIT)
</pre>
-<p>I hope to be able to remove the need for using IDs even for menu
-events too...</p>
<p>If you create your own custom event types and EVT_* functions, and you
want to be able to use them with the Bind method above then you should
change your EVT_* to be an instance of wxPyEventBinder instead of a

<p>When adding a spacer to a sizer you now need to use a wxSize or a
2-integer sequence instead of separate width and height parameters.</p>
<p>The wxGridBagSizer class (very similar to the RowColSizer in the
into a single extension module, the "core" module is now just a few
extensions that are linked independently, and then merged together
later into the main namespace via Python code.</p>

<p>Similarly, the wxSystemSettings backwards compatibiility aliases for

Object Return) for a couple years now there should be no need to use
wxPyTypeCast at all.</p>
+<p>If you use the old wxPython package and wxPython.wx namespace then
+there are compatibility aliases for much of the above items.</p>
+<p>The wxWave class has been renamed to wxSound, and now has a slightly
+different API.</p>
