similar to: A Sizer Tutorial

Hello all, Running this on an Intel Mac OSX 10.4.8 ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i686-darwin] wxruby2-preview (0.0.37) using zshell I''m having a heck of a time setting up a GUI with a differing number of widgets per row, resulting in a differing number or widgets per column. At first I tried to simply do something like the following: class CharacterInfoPanel < Wx::Panel def

Following alex advices, i''ve used both "text/textctrl.rb" and "etc/threaded.rb" to build my first wxApp. I''ve changed the Sizer type mainly (from "Wx::BoxSizer" to "Wx::FlexGridSizer"). I didn''t find the way to let @log (Wx::TextCtrl) span 2 columns. At the time of writing it''s growing only vertically. And also how to get

I see that GridBagSizer is not yet supported by wxRuby. Is there an alternative to specifying that a widget spans more than one column? I don''t see a way to do that in FlexGridSizer. -- R. Mark Volkmann Partner, Object Computing, Inc.

First, Thank you, thank you, thank you for those who put wxRuby together. I''m thrilled to be able to write GUI code in Ruby! I''m hitting some confusion about how Sizers work. I''ve read the tutorials and the section in the wxWidgets book but I still can''t seem to figure this out. Here''s an example of my code: parent = Wx::Panel.new(frame, -1,

These patches better implement ArtProvider and add the demo for it. I also expanded the bigdemo window a little bit. I really think we should go larger but I suppose there might be some people at 800x600 still. Note that creating your own art provider still doesn''t quite work correctly. I didn''t have time to get into that. The RubyConstants.i.patch file looks weird. Not

I''ve upgraded from 1.9.0 to 1.9.2 and am finding that the errors I''m getting don''t match the docs. For example, in Wx::ListCtrl: - The doc makes no mention of on_get_item_column_image(), but without this method I get NoMethodError. - The doc says on_get_item_attr() *may* be overloaded, but if I don''t define it, I get NoMethodError. The API doc appears to

Team, I am trying to learn a GUI for Ruby and I picked wxRuby. The problem is that I am kind of slow learning this and I now feel frustrated after trying for about at least 7 hours. I am trying to design a simple Sudoku 9x9 grid to display numbers, 1 - 9, using buttons. I posted a question on Ruby forum ruby-talk and a gentleman, Alex Fenton, answered my questions. Alex gave me what appear to be

Hi, I tried this one over on the main wx-users list as well, but thought I would try it here since I am using wxRuby: I am using wxWidgets 2.8.7 on a linux box using the GTK build. I have pared down my issue to the simplest case: I am trying to use a horizontal BoxSizer to split a frame into two sections: a left and right side. I want the left side to stretch proportionally and I want the

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

It appears from the wx 2.8.7 documentation that a wxSizerItem has a show() method. But when I try to invoke it through wxruby, I get: tasks.rb:56:in `do_btn3'': undefined method `show'' for #<SWIG::TYPE_p_wxSizerItem:0xb5eedf44> (NoMethodError) Is this just something that hasn''t been added because people don''t manipulate wxSizerItems much, or is it

Bonjour. Une fois mon application ouverte, je voudrais savoir, si cela est possible, comment dimensionner automatiquement la totalité des colonnes du grid à la taille de mon boxsizer, quand je change la taille de mon application? (puique mon grid est inséré dans mon boxsizer). merci

Hi Guys, I''m having serious troubles resizing a dialog with a ListCtrl. The ctrl will not resize horizontally no matter what I''m doing. I''ve attached a sample code below. Any help will be greatly appreciated, as I really like wxRuby :) I''ve also tried to copy from the example from listtest.rbw, but that also doesn''t seem to work. Another thing

Hello, wxruby-users. This is an addition which implement wrapper for overloading wxHtmlWindow::OnLinkClicked method. Unfortunately, it was impossible to make it correctly without ugly hack to wxpp.rb, but i`m hope it does not broke it. Please look at attachment for a patch for htmlwindow.t and wxpp.rb and additional file htmllinkinfo.t (need to be added to $objs array in extconf.rb). Sample

Attached are patches to make the textctrl.rb sample work fully. Note the new %directorargout typemap I added to fix wxWindows calling into SWIG. I don''t know if this can fix all such problems or not. Let me know what you think. I also rubified the sample a little bit more. Also, note that I fix the << operator so the function can be called. I hope I did this right. Roy

Hey there. I have an application that I developed with an older branch of wxruby some time ago, and I made heavy use of the LayoutConstraints class. I''ve been looking around, but so far haven''t found much in the way of advice for this scenario. Is there any existing documentation as to updating such applications? Thanks, Ess -- SO not teh 1337

Hi folks A couple of questions: 1) I seem to get funny artifacts in the display of TreeCtrl, ComboBox and ListBox when the MDI child frame containing it is first painted (see attached - it should be two-root treeview, unopened). I''m not sure if it''s related to being in a MDI, but the controls sample looks OK. The artifacts are cleared up when it''s repainted or

There seems to be a NotebookSizer in C++ wxWidgets, is it in wxRuby or is it going to be? Not a lot of info to be found about that one. I''ve been trying to apply sizers to a Listbook but nothing goes at it should be. Nothing is visible until I resize the top frame a little and in best case I can get either horizontal grow but not simultaneous vertical grow. Would anyone mind showing me

Hi, I am using wxRuby 1.9.7 and Ruby 1.8.6. I have built an extension in C++ and used swig to load it into Ruby interpreter, which works great. The extension is an often long executing algorithm, and I''ve noticed that if I fork a new Ruby thread in button clicked event, and in this thread run the algorithm the application freezes for the time of execution. I have looked through the
