Re: [Pythoncard-users] Easy way to get a multi-button dialg box

[Bo G. <bo...@sy...>]

I doubt there is an easy way, not in wxPython. Which brings up an
interesting question. I have been wondering whether sufficient
conditions could exist to migrate 'value-added' widgets like this from
sample code to core Pythoncard. This multi-button dialog is a good
example. I expect code like this would normally be distro-ed as sample
code, but why not make it a core component (or, I suppose more
precisely, a core dialog wrapper)? Is there a policy against
incorporating freestyle components and dialogs into core PCard?
Just curious.
