Methods Summary¶

Class API¶

class wx.Panel(Window)¶

Possible constructors:

Panel() -> None

Panel(parent, id=ID_ANY, pos=DefaultPosition, size=DefaultSize,
      style=TAB_TRAVERSAL, name=PanelNameStr) -> None

A panel is a window on which controls are placed.

Methods¶

__init__(self, *args, **kw)¶

Overloaded Implementations:

---

__init__ (self)

Default constructor.

Return type:

None

---

__init__ (self, parent, id=ID_ANY, pos=DefaultPosition, size=DefaultSize, style=TAB_TRAVERSAL, name=PanelNameStr)

Constructor.

Parameters:

• parent (wx.Window) – The parent window.

• id (wx.WindowID) – An identifier for the panel. ID_ANY is taken to mean a default.

• pos (wx.Point) – The panel position. The value wx.DefaultPosition indicates a default position, chosen by either the windowing system or wxWidgets, depending on platform.

• size (wx.Size) – The panel size. The value wx.DefaultSize indicates a default size, chosen by either the windowing system or wxWidgets, depending on platform.

• style (long) – The window style. See wx.Panel.

• name (string) – Window name.

Return type:

None

AcceptsFocus(self)¶

This method is overridden from wx.Window.AcceptsFocus and returns True only if there is no child window in the panel which can accept the focus.

This is reevaluated each time a child window is added or removed from the panel.

Return type:

bool

---

Create(self, parent, id=ID_ANY, pos=DefaultPosition, size=DefaultSize, style=TAB_TRAVERSAL, name=PanelNameStr)¶

Used for two-step panel construction.

See wx.Panel for details.

Parameters:

• parent (wx.Window)

• id (wx.WindowID)

• pos (wx.Point)

• size (wx.Size)

• style (long)

• name (string)

Return type:

bool

---

static GetClassDefaultAttributes(variant=WINDOW_VARIANT_NORMAL)¶

Parameters:

variant (WindowVariant)

Return type:

wx.VisualAttributes

---

InitDialog(self)¶

Sends a wx.InitDialogEvent, which in turn transfers data to the dialog via validators.

Return type:

None

See also

wx.InitDialogEvent

---

Layout(self)¶

See wx.Window.SetAutoLayout : when auto layout is on, this function gets called automatically when the window is resized.

Return type:

bool

---

SetFocus(self)¶

Overrides wx.Window.SetFocus .

This method uses the (undocumented) mix-in class ControlContainer which manages the focus and TAB logic for controls which usually have child controls.

In practice, if you call this method and the control has at least one child window, the focus will be given to the child window.

Return type:

None

See also

wx.FocusEvent, wx.Window.SetFocus

---

SetFocusIgnoringChildren(self)¶

In contrast to SetFocus (see above) this will set the focus to the panel even if there are child windows in the panel.

This is only rarely needed.

Return type:

None
