Hi, I want to start by thanking Mattia for his very helpful answer to my previous question.
I continue to be confused by the behavior of wxperl on Windows compared to linux. In this case, I am surprised by the behavior of an event bound to a right mouse click. In this script, I have a StaticText inside of a StaticBox. I want to bind an action to a right click on both static items. #!/usr/bin/perl package MyApp; use base 'Wx::App'; use Wx qw(:everything); use Wx::Event qw(EVT_RIGHT_DOWN); sub OnInit { my $frame = Wx::Frame -> new(undef, -1, 'demo', [-1,-1], [250,150]); my $sizer = Wx::BoxSizer->new(wxVERTICAL); my $box = Wx::StaticBox->new($frame, -1, 'Blah blah'); my $boxsizer = Wx::StaticBoxSizer->new( $box, wxVERTICAL ); $sizer -> Add($boxsizer, 1, wxALL, 5); my $st = Wx::StaticText -> new($frame, -1, "This is some text"); $boxsizer -> Add($st, 1, wxGROW|wxALL, 10); EVT_RIGHT_DOWN($st, sub{print "I clicked the Text!\n"}); EVT_RIGHT_DOWN($box, sub{print "I clicked the Box!\n"}); $frame -> SetSizerAndFit($sizer); $frame -> Show(1); 1; }; package main; use Wx qw(:everything); my $app = MyApp->new->MainLoop; On linux, the text gets printed to STDOUT when clicking on either one. On Windows, the event for right-clicking on the StaticText happens, but the one of right-clicking on the StaticBox does not. Is there a reason for this? Is there something I can do to make sure that the event gets issued for the StaticBox?
