I have a windows launch bar application that sits in the system tray. What I want to do is when i click on a button in the launch menu, it calls the event which then calls 'OnLaunch('path')' this does not seem possible. When I change 'OnLaunch(self, event)' to 'OnLaunch(self, event, path)' it says I dont have enough arguments. When I remove 'event', the OnLaunch runs as soon as the program loads. Using Google I can absolutly not find a way to pass arguments to a function called by a event. If indeed it is absolutly impossible, what could be the best alternate possibility?
Any help would be appreciated, Nils Lundquist CODE: from wxPython.wx import * import os, sys class MainWindow(wxFrame): def OnAbout (self, event): m = wxMessageDialog( self, " LUNCH Bar 0.1 \n" " A launch bar written in Python using wxWindows","About LUNCH", wxOK) m.ShowModal() m.Destroy def OnExit (self, event): self.tbi.Destroy() sys.exit() def OnTrayRight (self, event): self.PopupMenu(self.rhtmenu) def OnLaunch (self, event): print event.GetString() path = 'D:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\Firefox.exe' os.startfile(path) def __init__(self,parent,id,title): wxID_FIREFOX = 1117 wxFrame.__init__(self,parent,wxID_ANY, title, size = ( 200,100), style=wxDEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE|wxNO_FULL_REPAINT_ON_RESIZE) self.tbi = wxTaskBarIcon() icon = wxIcon('package.ico',wxBITMAP_TYPE_ICO) self.tbi.SetIcon(icon, '') self.rhtmenu = wxMenu() icon = wxBitmap(name = 'ffico.png', type = wxBITMAP_TYPE_PNG) item = wxMenuItem(parentMenu = self.rhtmenu, id = wxID_FIREFOX, text='Firefox') item.SetBitmap(icon) self.rhtmenu.Append(wxID_EXIT, "&Exit"," Terminate this program") self.rhtmenu.Append(wxID_ABOUT, "&About"," Information about this program") self.rhtmenu.AppendSeparator() self.rhtmenu.AppendItem(item) EVT_TASKBAR_RIGHT_UP(self.tbi, self.OnTrayRight) EVT_MENU(self, wxID_ABOUT, self.OnAbout) EVT_MENU(self, wxID_EXIT, self.OnExit) EVT_MENU(self, wxID_FIREFOX, self.OnLaunch) appwin = wxPySimpleApp() frame = MainWindow(None, -1, "Small editor") appwin.MainLoop() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
