If you're using wxPython 2.6.x with the current release version of PythonCard or the version in cvs, please report any issues here. In particular, I would like to hear about differences from 2.5.x that you've had to workaround or that are simply broken and we need to address in the next release. ka |

The biggest problem I've noticed on the Mac (10.3/10.4) between wxPython 2.5.3 and 2.6 is that sometimes TextField don't populate correctly on 2.6. They appear not to populate at all, but if you click in the field and drag left, the text will scroll into view. This problem doesn't happen on wxPython 2.5.3. Note that these fields were created on Resource Editor running under Windows. I'm not sure if that matters, but I notice there are some sizing differences between the two platforms. It's almost as if the text is trying to display on a field of a different size. This is the main reason I haven't upgraded any of our Mac users to Python 2.6 -- my PythonCard app doesn't have this problem under wxPython2.5.3. |

On the wxPython-dev list it was suggested that using
wx.SystemOptions.SetOptionInt("mac.textcontrol-use-mlte", 0)
might fix the problem if I read the description of current Mac wxPython
2.6 behavior correctly. Also, it sounded like Robin might make this the
default in the next 2.6 build. I'll try this out after OSCON, but I'm
back on 2.5.x for this week.

Thanks for checking into that...I did a search on the wxPython-dev
list archive, but had trouble finding the specific posting. I'm trying
to figure out the specific context in which that needs to be declared.
I tried it in my top-level script thinking it might apply globally,
but it didn't have any effect on the problem. I also tried it in
the on_initialize handler of an afflicted window, but it still didn't
help.

I moved up to wxPython 2.6 (and Python 2.4), using PythonCard from CVS
(from yesterday).
I saw 2 (or 3) differences (small sample files below).
1. (as originally reported by Brad)
I have a checkbox which overlaps a (later in the rsrc file) staticText.
In wxPython 2.5.3, this "works", in 2.6 it doesn't.
I think 2.6 is correct - the staticText should be drawn after the
checkbox's label, and so it should hide the checkbox's text, and so I
believe 2.6 is correct.
So this is a compatibility warning, but not a bug in wxPython 2.6 (nor
in PythonCard).
2. transparent PNG image.
I have an imageButton where the image is a file reference to a PNG file
with transparent pixels. The imageButton has border set to
"transparent". (Needs to be "transparent" to see the problem, works OK
if the button is style "3d").
In wxPython 2.5 this works properly. In 2.6, the background of the
button shows what was there before the window opened. i.e. it's as
though it were transparent all the way through the background of the app
window.
3. missing PNG image
if the image file is missing, both versions report "cannot load image
file". In 2.5, it works OK - so the effect is simply that where the
button is shows as background. In 2.6, it works as though the entire
image were transparent - i.e. you can see the desktop behind the app
window. (so far, just the same as problem 2).
BUT - the transparent area is far larger than the imageButton's size.
The imageButton has size 20,20 but the transparent area is something
like 100,20. So this might be another bug, or it might not.
So I think 2 and 3 (if 3 is actually different, not just a manifestation
of 2) are wxPython 2.6 bugs, not things that need to be, or even can be,
changed in PythonCard.
