hi,all!
have you used 'dictionary' of linux, the program that rests on the
panel as an icon, and when you click on the icon, it will display a
window and do something. So i'm wondering how to achieve this. I guess
it's a dialog window, right? but the crucial part is how to minimize
the program to an icon on the panel and make it responsive to the
click event.
thanks in advance!

I've never used this "dictionary " program you're talking about, but I
think I know what you mean. I would recommend that you download the
wxPython Demo and open the main.py file in the "wxPython2. 8 Docs and
Demos\demo" subdirectory. There's a class in there called
"DemoTaskBarIco n" which you can use to figure out how to do the whole
iconizing thing.
As for how to minimize to an icon, this is how I do it:
# bind the frame/app to wx.EVT_ICONIZE
self.Bind(wx.EV T_ICONIZE, self.onMinimize )
# hide the frame
def onMinimize(self , event):
self.frame.Hide ()
If you can't get it to work, please ask for help on the wxPython
mailing list: http://www.wxpython.org/maillist.php
They're quite helpful.

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.

Hello wxPythoneers.
I have a problem with a dialog box derived from wxFrame which has a
wxComboBox as main element. Depending on the entry selected from the
ComboBox, the dialog box will be populated with a number of controls.
This works fine for the first selection of a combobox item, but
subsequent selections from the combobox cause problems. This is
because the event function for the combobox populates the sizer for
the window with...

Hi !
I've looked all over (internet, books, etc.) and I haven't found a very
good ressource to get started with wxPython (yes, I've been through
their tutorial).
What I would basically like to do for starters is to be able to define
the main panel being displayed. For example :
1. wxFrame contains a wxPanel (call it mainPanel).
2. mainPanel contains another panel (childPanelA)

panel, but the error stops on the first panel line anyway. I've tried a
Layout() method but it didn't get that far).

Hi everyone,
I am using a python socket server to collect data from a socket
client and then control a image location ( wxpython) with the data,
i.e. moving the image around in the wxpython frame.
But the "app.MainLoop()" in wxpython looks like conflicting with
the "while 1:" in socket server. After I commented the
"app.MainLoop()", everything is working except two things:
1. if I click anywhere on the screen with the mouse, the image is...

Two of the panels on my program contain a number of check boxes. The exact number of which is determined by a pair of variables.

Hello All:
I am currently working on a project to create an FEM model for school.
I was thinking about using wxPython to gather the 12 input variables
from the user, then, after pressing the "Run" button, the GUI would
close, and the 12 input variables would then be available for the rest
of the program.
So far, what I have been able to do is mostly a reverse engineering
job to get the frame to look right and return the text variable...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
