GetData() function for wxDropTarget only works inside its OnData() function but is there way to get access to the dragged data inside OnDragOver() function? I'd need this to visualize the drag result to the user as the cursor is moving over the canvas before left mouse button is actually released. A...

If the number of items stays constant you could instead do this: for (int 0=;i<N_items;i++) { m_list->SetItem(i,col0_id,newval1); m_list->SetItem(i,col1_id,newval2); } Or if only a few items change you could run the above code for only the changed ids. I haven't tried refreshes yet when removing or ...

I made a minimal test app to show a case for user sizable control using wxSashWindow. User can drag the middle horizontal slider to show more or less of the list. This way user can free more space to controls after the list or to see more of the list. If this was implemented with a wxSplitterWindow ...

Hi, Can't you use an actual wxPanel or (non-modal) wxDialog? What is the problem with them? Did you try? Thank you. I did try putting the control inside a wxWindow but all that gave me was e.g. ability to turn on drawing of borders, but not sizing by border dragging. Using a free standing wxDialog ...

I'm referring to resize by dragging a border/corner of the window. And in a situation where the window is not a "top level" window but a container for controls, like wxPanel or wxWindow. I guess the answer to the question is then that it not be done unless using wxAUI or wxMDI. Besides siz...

Is there a way to have a panel that is sizable by user using drag and drop ? (EDIT: mouse dragging). I especially need to resize the panel itself and not use a wxSplitterWindow which portions space between two windows, but keeps the total size constant. wxPython seems to implement this with wx.lib.r...

I finally took the time to find solutions to these problems so I will answer myself. First, I have wxCollapsiplePane inside boxsizer that is inside wxScrolledWindow that is inside wxSplitterWindow. If I call Expand() for the collapsiplepane right after creating the object, then no matter what I've t...

I seem to be at loss on what to call and for which window when GUI elements are expanded/collapsed or hidden. First, I have wxCollapsiplePane inside boxsizer that is inside wxScrolledWindow that is inside wxSplitterWindow. It all works fine if I manually call Layout() for the scrolledwindow when col...

Any ideas on what would be good way to add such functionality to application?

A patch to wx?
Use platform specific code for this dialog?

With wxColourPickerCtrl, the associated event, EVT_COLOURPICKER_CHANGED, is only sent after I choose a color from the opened WxColourDialog and then finally click 'select' to close the dialog. Is there a way to get the the currently selected colour from the dialog without closing the dialog to much ...

Yes, I compared the code that creates the mainframe but I didn't see anything there. Possibly some controls creates the issue and some do not.

Ok, I'l take this at the mailing list.

Trying out the latest from git didn't help. I did try two different versions of GTK+ as shown in first post.

The problem seems to only affect some samples. 'minimal', 'progrid', 'ribbon' or 'menu' do not have the problem whereas 'dataview', 'collpane' or 'calender' does show it.

Calling Layout() for the parent window made it work, thanks.

When I put wxCollapsiblePane inside wxSplitterWindow and collapse/expand it, moving of other elements inside the window's boxsizer only happens after I move the sash. As such, expanding doesn't show the contents until I move the sash and collapsing doesn't make other elements reclaim the newly avail...

I get double frame border when running wxWidgets GTK3+ applications in Gnome 3 that I have compiled, including wx samples. The apps run fine inside KDE Plasma session or when compiled with GTK2 version of wx. Native GTK3+ applications like eye-of-gnome do not have double frame borders. It happens wi...
