|api| Class API
===============


.. class:: DocMDIParentFrame(wx.lib.docview.DocMDIParentFrame, DocFrameMixIn, DocMDIParentFrameMixIn)

   The DocMDIParentFrame is the primary frame which the DocApp uses to host MDI child windows.  It offers
   features such as a default menubar, toolbar, and status bar, and a mechanism to manage embedded windows
   on the edges of the DocMDIParentFrame.

   .. method:: __init__(self, docManager, parent, id, title, pos=wx.DefaultPosition, size=wx.DefaultSize, style=wx.DEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE, name="DocMDIFrame", embeddedWindows=0, minSize=20)

      Initializes the DocMDIParentFrame with the default menubar, toolbar, and status bar.  Use the
      optional embeddedWindows parameter with the embedded window constants to create embedded
      windows around the edges of the DocMDIParentFrame.


   .. method:: OnCloseWindow(self, event)

      Called when the DocMDIParentFrame is closed.  Remembers the frame size.


   .. method:: OnSize(self, event)

      Called when the DocMDIParentFrame is resized and lays out the MDI client window.


   .. method:: ProcessEvent(self, event)

      Processes an event, searching event tables and calling zero or more
      suitable event handler function(s).  Note that the ProcessEvent
      method is called from the wxPython docview framework directly since
      wxPython does not have a virtual ProcessEvent function.


   .. method:: ProcessUpdateUIEvent(self, event)

      Processes a UI event, searching event tables and calling zero or more
      suitable event handler function(s).  Note that the ProcessEvent
      method is called from the wxPython docview framework directly since
      wxPython does not have a virtual ProcessEvent function.


   .. method:: UpdateWindowMenu(self)

      Updates the WindowMenu on Windows platforms.
