Thanks Jorg, I'll do that.

Hi all, I've just released an application for designing Printed Circuit Boards. It's quite unusual in that it lets you create flexible tracks which can move and bend freely, while always maintaining your design rules. Also, unlike most CAD packages, there are no banks of icons, and no File, Edit .. ...

Hi all, I'm having a lot of trouble trying to compile this in VC++. I get the following errors: commctrl.h(29) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'HRESULT' commctrl.h(29) : error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int prsht.h(97) ...

Dur!

Found wxTreeListCtrl.

sorry.

Hi all, I would like to create a control which is a lot like a wxTreeCtrl, but also contains some elements of the wxListCtrl. Please see the mock-up image for an example of what I mean. On the left would be a normal wxTreectrl, but each element of the tree has other attributes which can be seen in t...

Thanks,

I guess that answers my question. It seems strange that there's no single change directory function. Maybe I'll request it.

thanks again

I guess when I said " I would like to be able to change the path." you thought I meant "change the current working directory". What I meant was, I want to change the path name stored in a wxFileName instance.

Thanks for your reply. However, I think you may have misunderstood me. I do wish to work with absolute paths as much as possible. However, I am working on a new file dialog. When a user double clicks on a directory name, then the current absolute path must be updated using just that name. so: if the...

Hi there, I have a wxFileName, which contains a path, but no filename. I would like to be able to change the path. Ideally, I would like a member function which works like "cd" in linux or DOS. For example if the wxFileName contained the path "D:\data". I might like to change to the directory "xml" ...

Thanks Auria, I checked the sources and EmulateKeyPress only uses the m_RawKeyCode variable. That works fine set the raw value. I tried changing the m_RawKeyCode value of the event inside the EVT_KEYDOWN event, but that still doesn't. So I still can't quite do what I originally wanted, but I can use...

Maybe you could try adding your own event handler, that would provess all events before they reach the control Thanks Auria. I'm actually doing that. It catches all the key down events and tries to change some of them. I'll check the sources though and see if I can work out what else needs to be ch...

thanks C_Bastian, I have also tried this technique, but I couldn't get that to work either :( I 'm at work at the moment, so I can't post the exact code I tried, but it was something like: wxKeyEvent keyEvent(EVT_CHAR); keyEvent.m_keyCode = WX_BACK; EmulateKeyPress(keyCode); It didn't work. I even t...

Hi all, I have a class, myTextCtrl, inheriting from wxTextCtrl. Sometimes, when the user presses Delete, I would like to change it into a Backspace instead. I am using EVT_KEY_DOWN, and I can easily prevent any Delete key events being passed onto myTextCtrl by not calling event.Skip(). That works pe...

Thanks. I take it I'll get wxFileCtrl when I switch to wxWidgets 3.0.

thanks

How can I use wxFileCtrl? On it's documentation page, http://www.lpthe.jussieu.fr/~zeitlin/wxWidgets/docs/wxwin_wxfilectrl.html it says that it needs <wx/filectrl.h> and wxUSE_FILECTRL should be set to 1. However, I cannot find filectrl.h, and none of the files contains wxUSE_FILECTRL. I would reall...
