Use wxNewEventType().

You could also have a look at this page for more information about how to create custom events.
or this one

i don't know of any other way to get the mouse-position at any time anywhere on the screen. maybe someone else knows a better way...

wxGetMousePosition()?

Gtk+ widgets aren't created yet @ the c'tor stage. You can use the EVT_WINDOW_CREATE event to set the window region later on, instead of in the c'tor. #include <wx/wx.h> #include <wx/image.h> class MyFrame : public wxFrame { wxBitmap m_Background; public: MyFrame(wxWindow * parent); DECLARE_EVENT_TA...

I don't know if that makes sense, but I think you will see the same weird sentences here ;-) Heh, this translator tells me your English is 'highly evil' :D :roll: --- Here's some friendly advice (to prokicki and anyone else who's trying to use an online translator): when asking some question, try t...

By the way Aardbei in which prg did you write that text? I assume you use a tablet pen? I am a bit of a cartoonist myself, and I am just curious ;-) Yes, I'm using a tablet (If you don't have one, get one now! It's a must have for every artist) , usually together with the (lin/win)GIMP for image ma...

Nice, looks very good! Here's a bunch of comments (I'm just writing down everything I've found, you might know about all or most of them already): - It would be a good idea to add the ability to cancel the 'Project Options'-dialog :shock: the 'x' is disabled and there's only an OK button; how can I ...

I'm using 2.6.0 and what you're describing for the wxEVT_DESTROY event happens for the wxEVT_CREATE event as well. All the events from child windows are redirected to the top level parent (definitely NOT what I want). - Does anyone actually use these onCreate and onDestroy events? - Has anyone alrea...

Hey, that's some smart use of EVT_MENU events, hadn't thought about that yet

You don't have to make those classes friends for that. Where did you (you did, did you?) initialize the 'frame' member of ContrastDialog? If you didn't, your program crashes because you're accessing an uninitialized pointer. Anyway, here's a cleaner approach that should work for doing what you're t...

mingwm10.dll is used (required) for thread support, you can remove the dependency by disabling it using --disable-threads (when configuring wxWidgets). - There's this post at the wx mailing list, but I don't know if that's true (probably not). - According to the 2nd url at this link , mingwm10.dll h...

Here's a few urls that should help you for the desktop specific ways of auto-starting programs: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Autostart_Programs http://www.kde.org/areas/sysadmin/startup.php http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2004-January/003146.html http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man1/gnome...

I think he means he wants to use HTML for formatting (instead of BBCode).

glViewport.

(not done automatically, afaik - wouldn't be useful anyway because it's nice to have the ability to define more than one viewport)

Not sure, but I think this will do:
(seems to be Windows-only, according to the docs)
