wxWidgets Discussion Forum

If you intend to convert SVGs to PNGs, wxSvgDocument is the wrong class. The only way to access wxWidgets' SVG renderer is through wxBitmapBundle. https://docs.wxwidgets.org/trunk/classw ... undle.html

In general, wxPython related questions are better discussed at https://discuss.wxpython.org/

Are there any secondary threads involved? If not, why the CallAfter calls?

If everything is single-threaded, i can't spot any mistake. Is it not possible to get a call stack in wxPython?

TBH, i think using web technologies would be the best for this kind of task. Yes, I am using web technologies ( a websockets library), that loads some JSON. I meant for the actual GUI, like HTML/CSS + React/Vue/Svelte/etc. but I get missing JPEG symbols (link errors), do you happen to know the name...

TBH, i think using web technologies would be the best for this kind of task. or just display a list of wxPanel, each main wxPanel having wxPanel children for an image panel, a text panel, etc If you want to do it with wxWidgets and standard controls, this is what i'd do. But you will probably be lim...

I'm afraid i don't know how to help any further from here.

I think wxConvAuto only checks for UTF encodings. For other multibyte encodings that can fail, you'd have to check them yourself until you find one that works. E.g. read the whole file in a buffer, then try to decode it using "gb2312". If the returned string is not empty, the encoding was ...

Is the code you posted the same you're actually using?

Can you post the file you use for testing?

Looking through the api of the related classes, i don't think there is a way to do that.

Does wxWidgets implement it in some way?

No, but as you can get the HWND with wxWindow::GetHandle(), you can just call it directly if you only need a Windows solution.

That doesn't help, because i don't know what type mcUserAnswer1 is, and how the text is displayed.

Is the content custom painted, or are these two different controls? If it's custom painted, note that there is a dedicated call to set the text background color: https://docs.wxwidgets.org/trunk/classw ... 1bb022766b

ONEEYEMAN, please settle down, no need to scream.

The official point of view is: You shouldn't do any of the things you listed. Otherwise you must know what you're doing, and if it works on one platform, there is no guarantee that it also works on another. In most cases it requires knowledge about the internal implementation of each class you'll be...

This is especially important for reference-counted objects. Thank you! And where can I learn which objects exactly are reference-counted? If I know this, I know what to look for in my code. For example: could wxGetColourFromUser return a reference counted object? Potentially anything that derives f...

I don't think that's possible. And if it was, you couldn't use the slider in the transparent window any longer.
