Hi Eric, Do you know of any documentation on Event Types and unpicking the variables passed as part of the event? If you do, I'd be pleased to pointed to it, if not, I'll pull some together afterwards, I feel it's really needed. I've been working on this now for four days. I'm comfortable now with how to identify which event called the event-handler, but I'm still struggling to understand how to identify the variables involved when $self is not passed as a parameter. Regards

Regards Steve _____ From: Steve Cookson [mailto:steve.cook...@sca-uk.com] Sent: 10 August 2009 09:02 To: wxperl-users@perl.org Subject: FW: Distinguishing between event types OK I'm making some progress. The event passes $self and $event to the subroutine. So I can use a handler that looks like this: sub __called_by_events { if ($event->GetEventType()=wxEVT_COMMAND_BUTTON_CLICKED) { do this_processing(); } But then I want to find out which control was clicked so I use $self->GetId() and I get "-205". What is this? And there are other event codes like 10114, when I expected wxEVT_COMMAND_KILL_FOCUS - 10202. Where can I find a table that tells me what 10114 and other codes are? Have a good day.

The events may be a mixture of button events or lose focus events and I need to process differently depending on which event it is. Eg, A search button is the same a change value of text field and exit (loose focus). But if the whole screen has lost focus because another application has been clicked on nothing happens. Ie in pseudo code: sub __called_by_events { if ((loose focus for field and not loose focus window) or press button) {do something} return; } But its not clear to me what methods work for both focus events and button events without getting an 'undefined' error. Also I'm struggling with the syntax. Regards Steve
