Alex,
Not exactly what you are asking for....but it might be a feeble
starting point....
def wxPython_YesNo_Cancel_Dialog ( wxapp =3D None,
title=3D"Alert!",
msg_text=3D"Nothing to say" ):
"""Display a QUESTION string which can be answered with Yes or
No.
=09
Return 1 when the user clicks the Yes button.
Return 0 when the user clicks the No button.
Return -1 when the user clicks the Cancel button.
=09
When the user presses Return, the DEFAULT value is returned.
If omitted, this is 0 (No).
=09
The QUESTION string can be at most 255 characters.
"""
=09
dlg =3D wxPython.wx.wxMessageDialog(wxapp, msg_text,
title,=20
wxPython.wx.wxYES_NO |
wxPython.wx.wxCANCEL |
wxPython.wx.wxICON_INFORMATION)
results =3D dlg.ShowModal()
if results =3D=3D wxPython.wx.wxID_YES:
results =3D True
elif results =3D=3D wxPython.wx.wxID_NO:
results =3D False
elif results =3D=3D wxPython.wx.wxID_CANCEL:
results =3D -1
dlg.Destroy()
return results
I have not had a need since using Pythoncard to create the exact wrapper
you
are discussing... I think that WXPython has a MessageDialog that allows
you to
configure the 3 buttons, but I have not looked that up yet...
I just glanced, but did not see any obvious way to modify the
messagedialog in wxpython...
Without possibly customizing a subclass or creating a dialog from
scratch in wxpython....
But I am *NOT* a wxpython guru....
I was good at Tkinter, but got tired of using Tkinter, started to use
wxPython, and held
a "pity" party of myself regarding wxPython documentation, and migrated
to PythonCard...
So I classify myself as "good enough to be dangerous" in regards to
straight wxPython...
