Hi,
I've been playing and working with PythonCard quite a time now and I
still love it. However there is a certain point when one has to start
dealing with wxPython resp. wx , say if you want a bit more from a the
ListCtrl, Notebook or from TreeCtrl or even use sizer.
Now my problem is that, the jump from writing PythonCard apps with the
help of the online documentation and the fine PythonCard tools to
understanding the wxPython docs seems way too broad for me to take. So I
am wondering what others did to close this gap, is there a nice
tutorial, an excellent book to read etc. ? I mean wx resp. wxPython
seems to me the way to go but I am having an extremly hard time learning
it. I have found a few books on amazon, but only 'wxPython in Action'
seems dedicated to my topic in question and I dont wan't a general
cookbook with a chapter on wxPython because I think that wouldn't help
me much.
Naturally the way I'd really like it to be is that PythonCard completely
wraps all those nifty wx-components I'm dreaming of to use like the
above ones... but I realize there sure are reasons why this is not done,
be it even lack of time or motivation or technical issues or that the
component may not be simplified enough to justify the wrapping, etc.
Also I guess that just shifts the point where you have to deal with wx
directly a bit into the future. I don't know, however I tasted blood and
I want the meat now (full blown cross platform gui apps with all bells
and whistles) ;-)
Thanks for any reading recommendations and tips,
Christoph
