You should derive from this class instead of :class:`Event` because this class is Python-aware and is able to transport its Python bits safely through the wxWidgets event system and have them still be there when the event handler is invoked. Note that since :class:`PyEvent` is taking care of preserving the extra attributes that have been set then you do not need to override the Clone method in your derived classes. .. seealso:: :class:`PyCommandEvent` | |class_hierarchy| Class Hierarchy ================================= .. raw:: html
