(Keep in mind however that the disabled bitmap is currently +generated on the fly by most native toolbar widgets, so this +SetToolDisabledBitmap method won't have any affect on them...) + +Refactored the inspection tool such that it can be used as a wx.App +mix-in class as it was used before (with the wx.lib.mixins.inspect +module) and also as a non mix-in tool (using wx.lib.inspect.InspectionTool). + +Add wx.lib.mixins.treemixin from Frank Niessink. + +Added the wx.SizerFlags class, and also added AddF, InsertF and +PrependF methods to wx.Sizer. The wxSizerFlags class provides a +convienient and easier to read way to add items to a sizer. It was +added as a new set of methods of the wx.Sizer class so as to not +disturb existing code. For example, instead of writing:: + + sizer.Add(ctrl, 0, wx.EXPAND | wx.ALL, 10) + +you can now write:: + + sizer.AddF(ctrl, wx.SizerFlags().Expand().Border(wx.ALL,10)) + + +Will Sadkin provided a patch for the wx.lib.masked package that fixes +its support for using the navigation keys on the numeric keypad. + +wx.lib.plot: patch #1663937 to allow user to turn off scientific +notation on plot. + +wxGTK: Most of the remaining TODOs for the wx.GraphicsContext on wxGTK +have been done. This includes implementations for GetTextExtent, +Clip, DrawBitmap, fixing the drawing position of text to be at the +upper left corner instead of the baseline, etc. + +wx.lib.customtreectrl patches from Andrea: + + 1. ExpandAll has been renamed as ExpandAllChildren, and the new + ExpandAll now takes no input arguments (consistent with + wx.TreeCtrl) + + 2. ctstyle keyword is now defaulted to 0: every style related to + CustomTreeCtrl and the underlying wx.PyScrolledWindow should be + declared using the keyword "style" only. For backward + compatibility, ctstyle continues to work as I merged ctstyle and + style in the __init__ method. + + 3. GetClassDefaultAttributes is now a classmethod. + + 4. UnselectAll bug fixed. + + +Renamed the wx.lib.inspect and wx.lib.mixins.inspect modules to +inspection, in order to avoid conflicts with the inspect module in the +standard Python library. + +Lots of changes to XRCed from Roman Rolinsky: + + * Preferences for default "sizeritem" parameters for new panels and + controls can be configured ("File">"Preferences..."). + + * Implemented comment object for including simple one-line comments and + comment directives as tree nodes. No validation is performed for a + valid XML string so comments must not contain "-->". Comment directive + is a special comment starting with '%' character, followed by a line + of python code. It is executed using 'exec' when the resource file is + opened. This is useful to import plugin modules containing custom + handlers which are specific to the resource file, hovewer this is of + course a security hole if you use foreign XRC files. A warning is + displayed if the preference option 'ask' is selected (by default). + + * Added support for custom controls and plugin modules. Refer to this + wxPythonWiki for the details: http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/XRCed#custom + + * Tool panel sections can be collapsed/expanded by clicking on the + label of a tool group. + + * Some undo/redo and other fixes. + + * Fixes for wxMSW (notebook highlighting, control sizes, tree Unselect). + + * Notebook page highlighting fix. Highlight resizes when the window + is resized. ParamUnit spin button detects event handler re-entry + (wxGTK probably has a bug in wxSpinButton with repeated events). + + * Fix for dealing with empty 'growable' property, using MiniFrame + for properties panel, the panel is restored together with the + main window. + + + + +2.8.1.1 +------- +* 19-Jan-2007 + +wxMSW: Fix lack of spin control update event when control lost focus + +Added a typeId property to the PyEventBinder class that holds the +eventType ID used for that event. So when you need the eventType +(such as when sending your own instance of standard events) you can +use, for example, wx.EVT_BUTTON.typeId instead of +wx.wxEVT_COMMAND_BUTTON_CLICKED. Note that there are a few composite +events, such as EVT_MOUSE and EVT_SCROLL, that will actually bind +multiple event types at once, and in these cases the typeId property +may not give you what you want. You should use te component events in +these cases. + +PyCrust now has an option for showing/hiding the notebook. + +wxMSW: Corrected drawing of bitmaps for disabled menu items. + +Enhanced the wx.lib.mixins.inspect module. In addition to showing a +PyCrust window it is now a widget browser, which provides a tree +loaded up with all the widgets in the app, optionally with the sizers +too, and also a panel displaying the properties of the selected +window. Run the demo and type Ctrl-Alt-I keystroke (or Cmd-Alt-I on +the Mac) to see how it works. You can add this to your own apps with +just a few lines of code. + +Added wx.SearchCtrl.[Get|Set]DescriptiveText + +wxMac: Added support for the wx.FRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT style. + +wxMac: the popups used for call tips and autocomplete lists in +StyledTextCtrl (such as in PyShell) are now top-level float-on-parent +windows so they are no longer clipped by the bounds of the stc window. + + + + + +2.8.1.0 +------- +* 8-Jan-2007 + +Added EVT_TASKBAR_CLICK and use it to show taskbar icon menu on right +button release, not press, under MSW (bug 1623761) + +Added wx.TreeCtrl.CollapseAll[Children]() and IsEmpty() methods + +Fix wx.MDIChidFrame.GetPosition() (patch 1626610) + +Fix attribute memory leak in wx.grid.Grid::ShowCellEditControl() (patch +1629949) + +wxGTK: Fix for controls on a toolbar being the full height of the +toolbar instead of their natural height. + +wx.lib.customtreectrl patches from Andrea Gavana. + +wxMac: Applied patch #1622389, fixing two memory leaks in +GetPartialTextExtents. + +More fixes for the native wx.ListCtrl on Mac. + +Added wx.aui.AuiNotebook.GetAuiManager(). + +Added wx.aui.AuiMDIParentFrame and wx.aui.AuiMDIChildFrame, which +essentially implement the MDI interface using a normal wx.Frame and a +wx.aui.AuiNotebook. + + + + +2.8.0.1 +------- +* 11-Dec-2006 + +Lots of fixes and updates to the AUI classes. + +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. + +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 @@ -15,7 +305,7 @@ 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.
