On wxGTK it uses a native expander widget, +on the other platforms a regular button is used to control the +collapsed/expanded state. + +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... + +Use system default paper size for printing instead of A4 by default. + +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. + +Added wx.combo.BitmapComboBox which is a combobox that displays a +bitmap in front of the list items. + +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.) + +Added some modules from Riaan Booysen: + + * wx.lib.flagart: contains icons of the flags of many countries. + + * wx.lib.art.img2pyartprov: makes images embedded in a python file + with img2py available via the wx.ArtProvider. + + * wx.lib.langlistctrl: A wx.ListCtrl for selecting a language, + which uses the country flag icons. + + * An I18N sample for the demo. + +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. + +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. + +Added a set of button classes to wx.lib.buttons from David Hughes that +uses the native renderer to draw the button. + + + + +2.7.2.0 +------- +* 7-Nov-2006 + +Patch [ 1583183 ] Fixes printing/print preview inconsistencies + +Add events API to wxHtmlWindow (patch #1504493 by Francesco Montorsi) + +Added wxTB_RIGHT style for right-aligned toolbars (Igor Korot) + +Added New Zealand NZST and NZDT timezone support to wx.DateTime. + +wx.Window.GetAdjustedBestSize is deprecated.
