I have an application that uses a WxListCtrl to hold data that is updated extremely fast. When I run my application the listctrl updates so fast that it practically disappears. Is there a way I can have it update with the user seeing it update rapidly without the dissapearing? Right now I have used the freeze and thaw methods to get rid of that disappearing listctrl problem, only now you have to wait for it to run it's course to see the output. It really isn't critical, I just think it would be a cool visual if the user could see it rapidly updating, I'm beginning to think that because of how rapidly it updates that isn't possible, but if it is I appreciate any help. And you guys would be so proud of me, I actually downloaded the Wx docs and found freeze and thaw all on my own under wxwindows members....lol. That's a quick note out to all that have been patient with me while helping me learn wxpython.
Well, the logical approach would seem to be to freeze, add a hundred items, thaw, freeze, add a hundred items, thaw ... [rinse and repeat].
Basically, control the repainting so it only occurs (relatively) infrequently.
