phoenix_title wx.aui.AuiToolBar

wx.aui.AuiToolBar is a dockable toolbar, part of the AUI class framework.

See also AUI Overview.

The appearance of this class is configurable and can be changed by calling wx.aui.AuiToolBar.SetArtProvider . By default, native art provider is used if available (currently only in wxMSW) and AuiGenericToolBarArt otherwise.

^^

styles Window Styles

This class supports the following styles:

  • wx.aui.AUI_TB_TEXT: Display the label strings on the toolbar buttons.

  • wx.aui.AUI_TB_NO_TOOLTIPS: Do not show tooltips for the toolbar items.

  • wx.aui.AUI_TB_NO_AUTORESIZE: Do not automatically resize the toolbar when new tools are added.

  • wx.aui.AUI_TB_GRIPPER: Show the toolbar’s gripper control. If the toolbar is added to an AUI pane that contains a gripper, this style will be automatically set.

  • wx.aui.AUI_TB_OVERFLOW: Show an overflow menu containing toolbar items that can’t fit on the toolbar if it is too small.

  • wx.aui.AUI_TB_VERTICAL: Using this style forces the toolbar to be vertical and be only dockable to the left or right sides of the window whereas by default it can be horizontal or vertical and be docked anywhere.

  • wx.aui.AUI_TB_HORZ_LAYOUT:

  • wx.aui.AUI_TB_HORIZONTAL: Analogous to wx.aui.AUI_TB_VERTICAL, but forces the toolbar to be horizontal.

  • wx.aui.AUI_TB_PLAIN_BACKGROUND: Draw a plain background (based on parent) instead of the default gradient background.

  • wx.aui.AUI_TB_HORZ_TEXT: Equivalent to wx.aui.AUI_TB_HORZ_LAYOUT | wx.aui.AUI_TB_TEXT

  • wx.aui.AUI_TB_DEFAULT_STYLE: The default is to have no styles. ^^

Parameters

DeleteByIndex(self, idx)

Removes the tool at the given position from the toolbar.

Note that if this tool was added by AddControl , the associated control is not deleted and must either be reused (e.g. by reparenting it under a different window) or destroyed by caller. If this behaviour is unwanted, prefer using DestroyTool instead.

Parameters

toolId (int) – ID of a previously added tool.

Return type

bool

Returns

True if the tool was removed or False otherwise, e.g. if the tool with the given ID was not found.

Parameters

font (wx.Font) – Font to associate with this window, pass NullFont to reset to the default font.

Return type

bool
