.. class:: AutoWrapStaticText(StaticText)

   A simple class derived from :mod:`lib.stattext` that implements auto-wrapping
   behaviour depending on the parent size.
   
   .. versionadded:: 0.9.5

   .. method:: __init__(self, parent, label)

      Defsult class constructor.
      
      :param wx.Window parent: a subclass of :class:`wx.Window`, must not be ``None``;
      :param string `label`: the :class:`AutoWrapStaticText` text label.


   .. method:: OnSize(self, event)

      Handles the ``wx.EVT_SIZE`` event for :class:`AutoWrapStaticText`.
      
      :param `event`: a :class:`wx.SizeEvent` event to be processed.


   .. method:: SetLabel(self, label, wrapped=False)

      Sets the :class:`AutoWrapStaticText` label.
      
      All "&" characters in the label are special and indicate that the following character is
      a mnemonic for this control and can be used to activate it from the keyboard (typically
      by using ``Alt`` key in combination with it). To insert a literal ampersand character, you
      need to double it, i.e. use "&&". If this behaviour is undesirable, use :meth:`~Control.SetLabelText` instead.
      
      :param string `label`: the new :class:`AutoWrapStaticText` text label;
      :param bool `wrapped`: ``True`` if this method was called by the developer using :meth:`~AutoWrapStaticText.SetLabel`,
       ``False`` if it comes from the :meth:`~AutoWrapStaticText.OnSize` event handler.
      
      .. note:: Reimplemented from :class:`wx.Control`.


   .. method:: Wrap(self, width)

      This functions wraps the controls label so that each of its lines becomes at
      most `width` pixels wide if possible (the lines are broken at words boundaries
      so it might not be the case if words are too long).
      
      If `width` is negative, no wrapping is done.
      
      :param integer `width`: the maximum available width for the text, in pixels.
      
      .. note:: Note that this `width` is not necessarily the total width of the control,
       since a few pixels for the border (depending on the controls border style) may be added.
