Hi Given the warm response to the syntax additions in 1.9.1 I''m considering moving one or two more syntax extensions into core, and would like your thoughts. Last ones, I promise. Realise we don''t want much more API change now, but also we''ll probably also have to live with whatever we settle on for 2.0 for a little while, so... 1) Setting up event handlers In

I''m happy to announce that wxRuby 1.9.2 is now available from Rubyforge. As usual we''ve got source and binary gems for Win32, OS X and Linux: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=35 or gem install wxruby == WHAT''S NEW == This release has a mix of new syntax features, new classes, and lots of minor fixes and additions * New shorter syntax for event handlers * New

Hi all, wxRuby 1.9.1 introduced great Rubish style accessors (x.label as a synonym for x.get_label). I just found that get_id has no corresponding Rubish style id accessor. For a CheckListBox or a StaticText (I haven''t checked for other kind of controls), id just returns the Ruby object_id. This is very confusing and not consistent with other accessors. Chauk-Mean.

Hi, I''m trying to create a very simple RichTextCtrl sample based on the C++ version. This works pretty well now with the fixes for missing RichTextCtrl.selection_bold? ... methods. See the attached script. Given the formatting buttons (bold, italics, underlined), I can type text with the proper formatting, select some text and apply a formatting later ... The problem I have is I

Hi, I'm trying to learn wxRuby. This is program: require 'wx' include Wx class MyFrame < Frame def initialize super(nil,-1,"Mi primera ventana Wx!") @panel = Panel.new(self) @lbl1 = StaticText.new(@panel,-1,"Label") @text1 = TextCtrl.new(@panel,-1,"Text Value") @combo =ComboBox.new(@panel,-1,"Combo Text") @button

Hi, The following code works as expected with a list box. require "wx" class HelloWorld < Wx::App def on_init helloframe = Wx::Frame.new(nil, "Hello World") choices = ["one", "two", "three", "four", "five"] data = ["data1", "data2", "data3", "data4", "data5"]

Hi, The documentation mentions the evt_tree_item_menu method for TreeCtrl but it seems that this method is not defined (wxRuby 1.9.4 on Windows). As a workaround, I''m currently using evt_tree_item_right_click. Cheers. Chauk-Mean.

Hi all, Here is an excerpt of code (with the new syntax from upcoming wxRuby 1.9.2) : evt_checklistbox(my_checklist, :on_checklistbox) evt_listbox(my_checklist, :on_listbox) evt_listbox(my_list, :on_listbox) def on_checklistbox(event) checklist = event.event_object # puts "listbox - event : item[#{event.int}] checked : #{event.checked?}" puts "listbox -

I''ve only had the briefest play with wxSugar and already I like it a lot. One small question - have you considered some more ''convention over configuration'' like they do in rails, in particular for event connectors? So instead of listen(:button, my_button, my_button_pressed) you can leave it out entirely and rely on the convention that a button has a _pressed

Hi, I''ve practically finished a patch for removing the limitation of CheckListBox (http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/wxruby-development/2007-October/000973.html) but I just discovered a new bug related with this control !! I need to redefine the delete method to take into account the deletion of the associated data. The problem is that if I just redefine this method and simply call super,

Hi all, This is a proposal for supporting keyword arguments to Sizer#add following the thread below : http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/wxruby-development/2008-March/001244.html After a deeper look at lib/wx/keyword_ctors.rb and lib/wx/keyword_defs.rb, I understood the whole thing :-). I just reused and modified slightly the method args_as_list. The new Sizer#add_item combines the features of add

Hi all, New wxRuby event handling offers the choice between using blocks or methods seamlessly and easily. This is great respectively for simple app and more complex app. Nevertheless, currently the creation of an application, a frame, or a dialog is very tedious for simple app : - you need to create a subclass of Wx::App, Wx::Frame ... - you need to put the initialization code in the initialize

Hi, What about releasing a new version shortly ? This is a long-awaited request from several users especially for recent ruby-1.9.1 versions on MinGW. Cheers. Chauk-Mean.

Hey Kevin, Am I correct in assuming that if I want a particular widget to respond to an event which doesn''t take an ID as an argument (like evt_size or evt_left_down), that I have to inherit a new widget and define the event handler within the inherited class? Here''s a little contrived code example to illustrate what I mean: class MyCtrl < Wx::TextCtrl def

Hi, I wanted to use wxSugar enumerable features to add a method for returning checked items'' index to the CheckListBox class : require ''wx_sugar/version'' require ''wx_sugar/wx_classes/control_with_items'' require ''wx_sugar/wx_classes/listctrl'' class Wx::CheckListBox def checked_items # use of find_all method from Enumerable

Hi, A long time ago, I made some MFC GUI programming ... There was basically 2 kinds of application : - dialog based application : a simple app based on a dialog (without menu, toolbar, status bar ...) - frame based app (Single Document or Multiple Document) with menu, toolbar, status bar ... I tried to make a dialog based app with wxRuby but the application never exits !! The following code
