wxWidgets Discussion Forum

[EDIT3:] I think it's safe to say, that the screenshot doesn't like transparency at all. See window frame in the second applied picture. I had similar problems as you can see in the YouTube video linked in this post: https://forums.wxwidgets.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=41448#p169981 I believe the s...

The following works for me on Windows 10 using the latest development version of wxWidgets from GitHub. wxShell("echo. 2> test.docx"); wxExecute("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Office\\root\\Office16\\WINWORD.EXE /t test.docx", wxEXEC_ASYNC); You might like to try these and s...

Yes, that was it!

Of course, it is obvious now. This asserts:
But this is fine:
Many thanks for your help I only wish the assert message could be a little less cryptic!

Good call DM! wxString doc = stream.GetString(); wxLogMessage ("%s", doc); Works as expected, whilst ... wxString doc = stream.GetString(); wxLogMessage (doc); ... doesn't (asserts as described in OP). It would have been interesting to see the content of a "bad" string. With one ...

The subject text is an assert that happens in the wxLogMessage call of the following code: wxCurlHTTP get ("http://www.wxwidgets.org/"); wxStringOutputStream stream; if (get.Get (stream) && stream.IsOk()) { wxLogMessage (stream.GetString()); } Please leave aside the discussion abou...

Hi,

I have been trying to update the wxFreeChart component over the past few months. Currently though, summer activities have slowed progress.

You can see the current state of things here: https://github.com/iwbnwif/wxFreeChart.

Feel free to leave any comments / issues.

Thanks, that is much clearer! In order to have aliased lines, you can simply create a wxGCDC from your wxWindowDC or wxMemoryDC as follows: wxGCDC gdc(dc); Then draw to gdc using exactly the same code as you do now. I have been working on a lot of updates to wxFreeChart here . I found that it is bes...

So, my question to the forum is valid: have other people suffered from being ‘helped’ this way by any user, and what can we do about it? Some suggestions regarding your second question: 1. For a completely free, friendly response to your question that may be advice, suggestions, anecdotes or just c...

Please could you provide a close up image to show the 'disturbances' that you mention. Also, have you drawn both graphs using wxDC - what exactly is the comparison that is being made with these two images? There seems to be a bit of difference in the anti-aliasing, but I am not sure if this is your ...

I would also like to thank doublemax for his untiring patience and support on these forums.

Why anyone would seek to criticise someone who is trying to help them is beyond me.

It's an old code and seems to be throw away by author.

The author is regularly on this forum.

Do you mean an accordion control like the one here?

(Please scroll down on that link, there are some pictures in the Readme.md).

I think that I have done this before using wxGrid::SetCellHighlightPenWidth with a value of zero.

It is worth noting the difference between cell selection and cell highlight in this case.

Well stripping out the "Fire" code and "Observable" was rather easier than I was expecting. Also implementing some simple events is not to bad. What is harder is deciding a good way to propagate them. My current thoughts are that every object which can change is derived from wxEv...

Nice chart! Also a "nice labels" kind of thing should be there as an option. I have implemented a 'nice' label numbering (as per the algorithm in this discussion http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8506881/nice-label-algorithm-for-charts-with-minimum-ticks), but not sure if this is what you...
