http://www.zetcode.com/wxpython/firststeps/app = wx.App()Each wxPython program must have one application object.frame = wx.Frame(None, -1, 'simple.py')frame.Show()Here we create a wx.Frame object. A wx.Frame widget is animportant container widget. We will analyze this widget indetail later. The wx.Frame widget is a parent widget forother widgets. It has no parent itself. If we specify None fora parent parameter we indicate that our widget has noparents. It is a top widget in the hierarchy of widgets. Afterwe create the wx.Frame widget, we must call the Show()method to actually display it on the screen.app.MainLoop()The last line enters the mainloop. The mainloop is anendless cycle. It catches and dispatches all events that existduring the life of our application.This was a very simplistic example. Despite this simplicitywe can do quite a lot with this window. We can resize thewindow, mazimize it, minimize it. This functionality requiresa lot of coding. All this is hidden and provided by default bythe wxPython toolkit. There is no reason for reinveinting thewheel.Figure: simple.py2 de 8 27/04/2008 1:01
http://www.zetcode.com/wxpython/firststeps/wx.Framewx.Frame widget is one of the most important widgets inwxPython. It is a container widget. It means that it cancontain other widgets. Actually it can contain any windowthat is not a frame or dialog. wx.Frame consists of a titlebar, borders and a central container area. The title bar andborders are optional. They can be removed by various flags.wx.Frame has the following constructor. As we can see, ithas seven parameters. The first parameter does not have adefault value. The other six parameters do have. Those fourparameters are optional. The first three are mandatory.wx.Frame(wx.Window parent, int id=-1, string title='', wx.Point pos = wx.Defaulwx.Size size = wx.DefaultSize, style = wx.DEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE, string name = "fwx.DEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE is a set of default flags.wx.MINIMIZE_BOX | wx.MAXIMIZE_BOX |wx.RESIZE_BORDER | wx.SYSTEM_MENU | wx.CAPTION |wx.CLOSE_BOX | wx.CLIP_CHILDREN. By combining variousstyles we can change the style of the wx.Frame widget. Ashort example follows.#!/usr/bin/python# nominimizebox.pyimport wxapp = wx.App()window = wx.Frame(None, style=wx.MAXIMIZE_BOX | wx.RESIZE_BORDER| wx.SYSTEM_MENU | wx.CAPTION | wx.CLOSE_BOX)window.Show(True)app.MainLoop()Our intention was to display a window without a mimimizebox. So we did not specify this flag in the style parameter.3 de 8 27/04/2008 1:01
