A closed issue in Python tracker http://bugs.python.org/issue5019 refers to similar problem reported by wxPython developers. AFAIK, the solution used by the wxPython project can not be used with PyGUI as it requires PyGUI to be compiled loaded as a separate dll. I am not sure if we should reopen this issue or create a new issue. As a workaround to enable theme on Vista you need to: 1. Download http://bugs.python.org/file12995/python.exe.manifest and copy it to Python installation directory 2. Execute following commands in python installation directory: mt.exe -manifest python.exe.manifest - outresource:python.exe;#1 mt.exe -manifest python.exe.manifest - outresource:pythonw.exe;#1 Note: mt.exe is installed with Windows SDK. P.S. I also found out that I can not run any tests if I use pythonw.exe on Vista. I will check the same on XP and report back. Regards, Suraj -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Tested on Vista Home Premium 64bit with Python 2.6.2 all tests pass except: 16-model_dialog.py - If the model dialog Spanish Inqisition is closed by pressing ENTER key, it pops up again. However, clicking buttons works fine. Minor nitpicks: 1. Menu accelerators are not enabled by default i.e. pressing Alt + F does not open the File menu. 2. Alt + F4 does not close the window. 3. None of the controls (except menus) have _Vista look_ to them (http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/14797/no_vista_theme.png). Still no idea what's causing the object has been destroyed error on Windows XP, though. Does this happen for everyone? Is there anyone who *has* got 12-scroll.py working for them on XP? I have never seen this error either on XP or Vista. 12-scroll.py has always worked for me. Regards, Suraj -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I'm no longer promising to provide mouse_enter and mouse_leave events on any platform for the time being. It's not straightforward to implement them on Windows and they never worked consistently between Cocoa and Gtk anyway, so they weren't very useful. Is that a QT or PyQt limitation? It's a Windows API awkwardness. You don't get WM_MOUSELEAVE events automatically, you have to ask for them, and there's no such thing as a WM_MOUSEENTER event at all. It's not impossible, just more bother than I want to go to right now. I'll reconsider the whole issue in the future if use cases for these events come up. Right now I don't have any. -- Greg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

It wraps platform-specific libraries directly, rather than being a wrapper around another cross-platform library. This means less bloat and less dependencies. Chances are you already have the necessary libraries installed. The API is designed to be very straightforward and Pythonic, and it's fully documented in its own terms, so you don't have to consult the documentation for some other library in some other language and translate into Python. -- Greg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
