Re: Setup.h issue

I finally thought to verify which setup.h files were actually being included in release and debug. Digging into the external dependencies I finally noted release mode is including "include\msvc\wx\setup.h" and debug mode "\lib\vc_lib\mswud\wx\setup.h" which was the problem It loo...

Setup.h issue

I've been transitioning some projects (Windows) to a new version of Visual Studio (a hefty jump in versions to boot) AND moving them to 64 bit solutions under 2.9.5. (Yes it's old, but upgrading versions is not currently an option, much as I' wish otherwise). I rebuilt the libraries, got a basic sam...

Question about sizers and modal dialogs

So I want to build a modal dialog with sizers. That's straightforward enough. I build my dialog, lay out my sizers, and then....I get confused, mostly because I've never actually sorted out all the various iterations of Fit(), Layout(), SetSizer(), etc. My modal dialog is referenced off my main fram...

Re: Question about Windows Font scaling

Is your application marked as "dpi aware" through the manifest? I assume you're using sizers and no hardcoded values for position and/or sizes? 2.9.5 is pretty old indeed. I would suggest you make a small test with both 2.9.5 and the latest wx version from GIT. If the latest version fixes...

Question about Windows Font scaling

I've noticed something odd with some controls and Windows font scaling. Admittedly, this is an older version of wxWidgets (2.9.5), but it's what I'm stuck working with for the time being. I've got a bunch of radioboxes. If I manually set the font size to something large and run it, the radioboxes si...

Re: Non-appearing control, maybe sizer related?

Apparently adding a Freeze() and Thaw() (So Freeze, Layout, Refresh,Thaw) somehow made it work for the combobox. I'll mark it solved, even though I don't know what happened much less how it fixed it.

Non-appearing control, maybe sizer related?

I'm using wxWidgets 2.9.5 (it is not something I can upgrade at the moment) and I have this weird, incredibly intermittent issue. On two separate panels (it's a wxNotebook) I have a single control (one a wxComboBox and one a wxStaticText) that, once I converted the previous static layout to a dynami...

wxRadioBox question

Is it possible to dynamically change the number of selections in a wxRadioBox? As in, say, initialize it with "Option A" and "Option B" and then add an "Option C" if needed (and then remove said Option C if needed)? Or do you need two radioboxes (one of two options, one...

Re: Issue saving bitmaps to file

Hi, Does the original image has an Alpha? Also - what platform are you trying this on? And how did you build wxWidgets? Thank you. I believe the problem is Alpha. Loading: MyStaticBitmap->SetBitmap(wxBitmap("myBitmap",wxBITMAP_TYPE_RESOURCE)); wxImage image = MyStaticBitmap->GetBitmap().C...

Re: Issue saving bitmaps to file

The code looks OK, I am assuming you are running debug build of wxWidgets which would assert if the bitmap or image were invalid. My guess would be that the issue is somewhere else than in the posted code (assuming you did not omit anything relevant) and you would not be able to reproduce it in an ...

Re: Issue saving bitmaps to file

Hi, Does the original image has an Alpha? Also - what platform are you trying this on? And how did you build wxWidgets? Thank you. Windows 7, wxWidgets 2.9.5, static libraries. And I have no idea of the original images have an alpha. They predate me by some time. For that matter, I'm not even sure ...

Issue saving bitmaps to file

Attempting to save a static bitmap to file generates an all black result (whether saved as bitmap, jpg, etc). I Here's the stripped down broken version. The bitmaps come from the resource file. //This bit declared elsewhere wxStaticBitmap myBitmap->SetBitmap(wxBitmap("useful_bitmap",wxBITM...

wxGrids and sizers question

I seem to have a reoccurring problem with wxGrids and being placed in sizers. I'll defined the grid minimum and maximum size, place it in the sizer, call the Layout() and the result looks correct. The wxGrid will show scrollbars, fit inside the frame, and not extend past the edge of the frame. Excep...

Re: Sizers and resizing the main frame question

I think I may have found the problem. Or rather, realized the problem is not with the wxTextControl or the set of sizers I've been looking at. I'm using a wxNotebook, and the problem I am diagnosing is on the last tab of the notebook. However, on another tab of the notebook, the same problem is happ...
