It gets the list control size and sets the frame size accordingly. I don't see any effect of it.

Maybe, you're right, I could just leave it alone.

It already uses SetSizerAndFit() upon creation, I tried calling Fit() but it doesn't fit as expected. The window shrinks and fits.

The problem is when I add file to list control, its column size changes if file name is longer. When column size changes, scroll appears because wxFrame doesn't resize.

How can I resize wxFrame as list control size changes?
I want to get rid of scroll bar and resize wxFrame as items are added into list control.

Yes, I will use both menu and keys for same commands. I am going to try accelerators and see if works. Update: Yes, it seems to work well. I set accelerators to list control: wxAcceleratorEntry entries[4]; entries[0].Set(wxACCEL_CTRL, (int)'A', SEL_ITEMS); entries[1].Set(wxACCEL_CTRL, (int)'D', FIND...

I am trying to catch Ctrl + A in order to select all listctrl items: m_list->Bind(wxEVT_LIST_KEY_DOWN, &TestDialog::OnKeyDown, this); void TestDialog::OnKeyDown(wxListEvent& event) { switch (event.GetKeyCode()) { case a: case A: { if (wxIsCtrlDown()) { // works! } } } } I wanted to avoid usi...

Okay, I figured it. program was using size_t datatype which is typdef of unsigned int in x86 build but unsigned long long in x64 build. Can I make it work in both builds? I thought it was just "unsigned int" problem, but typedef made it tricky.

As soon I cast it from unsigned int to int using it runs in release build without crash using either "%u" or "%i". So, yes the problem exists there.

I tried "%u" again, it doesn't stop the crash.

I have unsigned int i; converted to string. This works fine in Debug build but in release build it causes an error: wxString::Format(wxT("%i"), i)); What's the correct format specifier? I have tried "%l" , "%u", "%lu" but none are working. Using wxWidgets 3.1.4

Right so I resized the .gif itself. The 'wxAC_NO_AUTORESIZE' doesn't seem to be useful if it crops though..

I am looking at the sample code for wxAnimationCtrl given in \wxWidgets-3.1.4\samples\animate . Can I resize the control such that "throbber.gif" plays in small size? I tried "wxAC_NO_AUTORESIZE" flag but this crops the gif rather than resize it to the control. wxAnimationCtrl *m...

@doublemax and @PB: yes, both your insights were correct. I was simply trying to execute code in "mouse enter" function for a different scenario, but I moved it because it made no sense. Also it didn't make sense to call onClose but Close. I came up back to Winndows programming after a few...

Today, I was checking some of my code from years old and came across these lines: wxMouseEvent e; OnMouseEnter(e); // .... wxCloseEvent e; OnClose(e); First of all the code works but it seems like a bad design to directly call OnClose and OnMouseEnter event functions. I came across ProcessEvent func...

Maybe then I should simply use a real web browser for this

Thanks! If I just want to save the state of the html i.e. my highlights, can I use something called 'localStorage' https://javascript.info/localstorage ?

You saved me from taking the complete Javascript script course over this small effect I was trying to achieve. Well done . All I need to do is export the highlighted text from the control as HTML file.
