wxPython: combining wxListCtrl and wxCheckBox

I would like a wxListCtrl with 3 columns in it. The number of rows in
it will vary during run-time. In the first column of each row should
be a wxCheckBox, which the user can check or uncheck.

Is such an arrangement possible?
Any example source code?

wxCheckListBox comes close - but not close enough. Unfortunately, it
does not derive from wxListCtrl, which contains the function
InsertColumn() needed for multiple columns

One way to do this is to use the capability of the ListCtrl to display
images in the first position in the row. You can create checked and
unchecked images and then insert whichever image is appropriate for a
given row in the List.

When the row is created,
LCtrl.InsertIma geStringItem(.. .) can insert the appropriate image and
you can then add as many additional columns as you need with
LCtrl.SetString Item(row, column, string)

If some event changes the checkbox status of a row:

LC_Item = LCtrl.GetItem(r ow)

if __some condition__:
LC_Item.SetImag e(index_uncheck ed)
else:
LC_Item.SetImag e(index_checked )

LCtrl.SetItem(L C_Item)

Is there a way to change the background color of a wxCheckBox in wxPython? Using the SetBackgroundColor function will change the background of any label attached to the checkbox, but I want to change the color of the actual box. I thought about trying to draw a colored box behind the checkbox, but I am putting the checkbox over an image and I havent had much luck drawing on top of the image. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can anybody recommend a good book on wxPython? Are there any books on wxPython? I've been trying to learn wxPython and/or wax for a few weeks, and I'm just not getting it. wxWindows seems to be more low-level than the other GUI toolkits I've used (Tk, GTK, and Trestle), and there are all sorts exposed details in wxWindows/wxPython that I find weird.

Hi there. I am trying to display tabular data in a wxListCtrl. What I get from the script below are only the headers, not the items themselves. The documentation didn´t help me much; instead I was lost in ListItemId´s and different possibilities of inserting items and strings. I am sure the solution is only one step away, but I need somebody to point in the direction. Heres the script: from wxPython.wx import * class...

Hello. I am working on an XML editor that will not display the xml file as plain text, but will rather work with a combination of a tree view for the main element nodes and some kind of tabular view to view attributes. By this way, the user (i.e. me) will only have the opportunity to change textual contents and attribute values, but neither element nor attribute names. Building the tree view was not a problem, but I haven´t found a good...

Hello, did anyone succeed in combining wxpython and a 3d engine (pyogre, crystalblend, panda3d, soya etc.) ? I would like to create an application, which uses wxpython tree, menu and grid elements and embedds a 3d view of some of the listed objects in an own detail window, so showing the object as a 3d model. I know there is PyOpenGL as well, but I need to load complete models (meshes done with cinema4d or blender) into the 3d view.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
