GetID is preferred since it is always fixed to the control. The label may change, which can be considered a feature. E.g., a Start/Stop button that changes the label from "Start" to "Stop" and vice versa. However, this will become slightly more complicated with stock buttons, and when you start writing internationalized programs. -- Johan

The "button_1" name is at a totally different level. If you really
must have it, you'd probably need to scan the parent hash and try
GetId on every key until you have the desired key.
Since you can assign your own IDs to the controls, why still the need
for the name?

Any way of returning the actual individual control name
$self->{button_1} = Wx::Button->new($self, $KEY1, "1");
OK I have figured out how to:
get hold of the button object using $event->GetEventObject()
define a constant and return it using $event->GetEventObject()->GetId
Is there any way of returning the "button_1" name programatically?
