Thanks, good demo. Observations:
+ It takes a full minute for the dropdown to be populated (linux)
Wow! On my Mac, it's instantaneous; on Windows it takes about a
second.
+ When you press the up arrow on the spinner before populating the
dropdown, a recursion in the listbox happens (setting index > length)
Yeah, that's unfortunate. Normally, you'd populate the list
control before displaying the form, but I wanted the population to be
done in the demo.
+ Why do you both save the self.btn attr as well as the RegID of
button? self.btn and self.button refer to the same object.
Why not? It certainly doesn't hurt anything. The fact that
RegIDs allow you to refer to the object doesn't mean that the way
that most people who are used to wxPython do things won't still work.
+ line 78's eval() can be replaced with:
ret = getattr(self.btn, val).__doc__
OK. I was just playing around trying to find something
interesting to use to show binding, and kinda stumbled onto using
__doc__ as something remotely interesting.
+ When I push up arrow on the spinner after populating, I get:
Dabo Error Log: Thu Nov 10 10:51:33 2005: End-around call of event
(<class 'dabo.dEvents.ValueChanged'>, (), {})
and nothing seems to change, other than the first item in the list
(AcceptsFocus) is no longer there, replaced by a separator.
Again, not what I see on Mac or Win. On both, clicking the Up
arrow button increments the value in the spinner, and the dropdown's
selected value changes to the corresponding position. And yeah, I get
that end-around message too (see my previous post).
+ I see now why you wanted to raise Hit when the value changed. I'd
suggest instead to revert that change and respond to ValueChanged
instead, which is the intent of that event.
This is the case only in dropdowns; on other list controls, you
can change the value without firing Hit.
