Is there any way to get wxMenu popup width? I want to calculate the wxMenu popup width before calling PopupMenu() API. Using the width I want to calculate the popup menu position.

I want to implement tour slides very similar to android app tour. [img] download.png [/img] Requirement: 1. Semi-transparent popup window on top of Frame window of my application. 2. Fully visible child controls (wxStaticText, wxButton, Drawing Lines on transparent parent) I tried SetTransparent(), ...

What about this: Bind(wxEVT_DATAVIEW_SELECTION_CHANGED, [=](wxDataViewEvent& evt){ GetSelections(m_selections); evt.Skip(); }); Bind(wxEVT_IDLE, [=](wxIdleEvent& evt){ SetSelections(m_selections); evt.Skip(); }); I am assuming that wxIdleEvent will be fired always in any update in the wxData...

Did we found any workaround for this issue with modifying wxWidgets.

Drawing is not correct wxRendererNative::Get().DrawPushButton() on Mac, whereas other drawings (DrawCheckBox, DrawRadioBitmap) are perfect. In the attached screen shot, 4 buttons are there. Hold : wxButton Process and Hold : wxRendererNative::Get().DrawPushButton() checkbox : wxRendererNative::Get()...

Yeah, It was very simple. wxDataViewCtrl is a composite control (wxDataViewHeaderWindow and wxDataViewMainWindow).

Both wxDataViewHeaderWindow and wxDataViewMainWindow uses the font of its parent. wxDataViewCtrl in this case.
Just I need to use wxDataViewCtrl::SetFont() and things work.

Found a way to solve this issue. wxRendererNative has the following virtual function // Returns the default height of a header button, either a fixed platform // height if available, or a generic height based on the window's font. virtual int GetHeaderButtonHeight(wxWindow *win) = 0; As I am using t...

In one place of my application, I am using huge customisation (full colourful drawing) in wxDataViewCtrl via custom renderers . Initially I develop on Windows, and when I tried the native implementation on Mac, things went horrible. I found issues like: 1. Few functions are not available in native i...

I tried with wx3.1 on the same 10.11, I am not facing that much distortion. But still it has issue with paint. Whenever I click on a header, all the header left to clicked header, text goes blur. If click 4 to 5 times, leads to kind of unreadable header text. Please check the screen shot attached. S...

Default font size in generic wxDataViewCtrl does not look good. Row and Header height is less to accommodate rendered text height. Off course SetRowHeight() function is available, we can increase the row height, but big text does not look good. Is there any way to set the font size in generic wxData...

I tried to get HeaderWindow and tried to set SetSize(-1, 40). It is not honoured. code snippet to get header window: wx...

iwbnwif,
What should be the action item, I feel it is a bug.

As a end user behaviour must be same, whether it is generic implementation of wxDataViewCtrl/wxDataViewListCtrl or native one. It should be same as standard list control.

I missed one important information. I am using wxDataViewCtrl generic implementation on both Windows and OSX.

I did not create a native list control, but I checked windows task manager and Add Remove Programs both of them use SysListView32 window class. They retain list row than row index. I checked with Microsoft outlook also (it is not a SysListView32 class, it is a custom control), but it shows the same ...
