[wxperl-users] WxGrid with multiple lines

[Richard H. <ri...@ru...>]

I need a user interface like a spreadsheet.

Rows contain buttons that affect data arranged in columns, one for each 
date.

But the explanation for each rows can be long, often spanning several lines.

In a spreadsheet, the text can be wrapped inside the cell and the row 
height adjusted.

wxGrid is close to what I need, but I CANT get the text to wrap within a 
cell.

I cant seem to find a way to do this, either for Gtk2-perl or wxPerl.

In the wxWidgets forum I have found reference to 
Wx::GridCellAutoWrapStringRenderer, so I tried

      my $grid = Wx::Grid->new($frame,-1,[50,100],[300,300]);
       $grid->setDefaultRenderer(Wx::GridCellAutoWrapStringRenderer->new());

but I get
    Can't locate object method "new" via package 
"Wx::GridCellAutoWrapStringRenderer" (perhaps you forgot to load 
"Wx::GridCellAutoWrapStringRenderer"?) at wxGrid_test.pl line 33.
