If I use the wx demo plug-in whenever I close a demo I see the attached error. A couple of other things which are more annoying are: - Inspector panel is just about unusable, e.g. enter the path to the wx demo is just about fine, try changing it without using the dir browse button. - Inspector the browse button is just about always invisible unless one manually enlarges the window. - Explorer one can't enter e.g. "d" to move to the entries starting with "d" - Explorer the mouse wheel does not work Anyone having some patches for this?

Hello Werner, Sorry for the confusion from my "English"... "Just OK" means that there are still many issues to resolve. I now have many changes, with more to come, to make Boa work properly on the Gnome 3 desktop wxPython 2.8.12. I have successfully installed the wxPythonDemo plug-in on Ubuntu. I can provide instruction if need be. The things that I have found related to you post: 1) The error that you attached has only to do with the Editor (not just the demo). It happens only some of the time. I am looking for the bug. 2) Building 2.8.12 against GTK 2.24.4 may have fixed many issues. e.g. "d" to move to the entries starting with "d" DOES work for me. 3) StyleTextControl works much better under wx 2.9. 4) Inspector panel works much better under wx 2.9, but is still not great. Some issue that I see on Gnome I have also seen on Windows. It is my next big fix for 2.8. I will submit patches to the list when preliminary Windows testing of changes pass. Thank you for all your dedication to this project!!! On 5/17/2011 3:19 AM, Werner F.
