## 1. Fixed .SetValue() to replace the current value, rather than the current ## selection. Also changed it to generate ValueError if presented with ## either a value which doesn't follow the format or won't fit. Also made ## set value adjust numeric and date controls as if user entered the value. ## Expanded doc explaining how SetValue() works. ## 2. Fixed EUDATE* autoformats, fixed IsDateType mask list, and added ability to ## use 3-char months for dates, and EUDATETIME, and EUDATEMILTIME autoformats. ## 3. Made all date autoformats automatically pick implied "datestyle". ## 4. Added IsModified override, since base wxTextCtrl never reports modified if ## .SetValue used to change the value, which is what the masked edit controls ## use internally. ## 5. Fixed bug in date position adjustment on 2 to 4 digit date conversion when ## using tab to "leave field" and auto-adjust. ## 6. Fixed bug in _isCharAllowed() for negative number insertion on pastes, ## and bug in ._Paste() that didn't account for signs in signed masks either. ## 7. Fixed issues with _adjustPos for right-insert fields causing improper ## selection/replacement of values ## 8. Fixed _OnHome handler to properly handle extending current selection to ## beginning of control. ## 9. Exposed all (valid) autoformats to demo, binding descriptions to ## autoformats. ## 10. Fixed a couple of bugs in email regexp. ## 11. Modified autoformats to be more amenable to international use. ## 12. Clarified meaning of '-' formatcode in doc. ## 13. Fixed a couple of coding bugs being flagged by Python2.1. ## 14. Fixed several issues with sign positioning, erasure and validity ## checking for "numeric" masked controls. git-svn-id: https://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/branches/WX_2_4_BRANCH@20549 c3d73ce0-8a6f-49c7-b76d-6d57e0e08775
wxPython README
---------------
Welcome to the wonderful world of wxPython!
So where do you go from here? The best thing to do is to run the demo
and use its source code to help you learn how to use wxPython. Most
of the classes available are demonstrated there, and you can view the
sources directly in the demo so it is designed to help you learn. If
you are on Windows or OS X then you can run the demo just by double
clicking it's icon. If you are on Linux/Unix then change to the
directory containing the demo and type:
python demo.py
There are also some sample mini applications available for you to run
and to play with as a learning exercise.
The next thing you should do is join the wxPython-users maillist where
you can interact with a community of other users and developers who
are willing to help you learn, answer questions and solve problems.
To join the mail list just send an email message to the following
address from the account you want to receive the mail messages from
the list:
wxPython-users-subscribe@lists.wxwindows.org
There is also a good set of class reference documentation available
for wxPython, but currently it is geared for the C++ user. This may
be a little daunting at first, but with a little practice you'll
easily be able to "translate" from the C++ shown there to Python. Not
all classes documented are available in Python, but most of the GUI
related classes are.
