Announcing ---------- I'm pleased to announce the 2.5.2.8 release of wxPython, now available for download at http://wxpython.org/download.php or https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10718&package_id=10559&release_id=263903 What is wxPython? ----------------- wxPython is a GUI toolkit for the Python programming language. It allows Python programmers to create programs with a robust, highly functional graphical user interface, simply and easily. It is implemented as a Python extension module that wraps the popular wxWidgets cross platform GUI library, which is written in C++. wxPython is a cross-platform toolkit. This means that the same program will usually run on multiple platforms without modifications. Currently supported platforms are 32-bit Microsoft Windows, most Linux or other Unix-like systems using GTK or GTK2, and Apple Macintosh OS X. Changes in 2.5.2.8 ------------------ This is predominantly a bug-fix release. Changes include: * Fixed fatal error due to improper wrapping of wx.FSFile. * Fixed return type of EditableListBox.GetListCtrl * Give generic tree and list controls a DoGetBestSize so they play nicer with sizers when there is no minimal size. * Some tweaks in the demo and samples to correct layout, some flicker problems, and namespace use. * Add wx.Image.ConvertAlphaToMask * Minor corrections in wx.lib.dialogs * wx.FileHistory constructor now accepts the documented 2nd parameter. * Corrections for exceptions in the new ogl * Fixed XRCed to not use reparenting of windows to implement caching of property panels, since Reparent on wxMac is not implemented. * Add support for wxTAB_TRAVERSAL to the XRC handler for wxScrolledWindow. * Add support for all wxListBox styles to the XRC handler for wxCheckListBox. * Fix for wx.Listbook.DeleteAllPages to really delete everything. * wxGTK2 now supports alpha blended bitmap drawing * Made wx.grid.Grid play nicer with sizers. * etc. -- Robin Dunn Software Craftsman http://wxPython.org Java give you jitters?
