Class API¶

class ScrolledPanel(wx.ScrolledWindow)¶

ScrolledPanel fills a “hole” in the implementation of ScrolledWindow, providing automatic scrollbar and scrolling behavior and the tab traversal management that ScrolledWindow lacks.

Methods¶

__init__(self, parent, id=-1, pos=wx.DefaultPosition, size=wx.DefaultSize, style=wx.TAB_TRAVERSAL, name="scrolledpanel")¶

Default class constructor.

Parameters

parent (wx.Window) – parent window. Must not be None;
id (integer) – window identifier. A value of -1 indicates a default value;
pos (tuple or wx.Point) – the control position. A value of (-1, -1) indicates a default position, chosen by either the windowing system or wxPython, depending on platform;
size (tuple or wx.Size) – the control size. A value of (-1, -1) indicates a default size, chosen by either the windowing system or wxPython, depending on platform;
style (integer) – the underlying wx.ScrolledWindow style;
name (string) – the scrolled panel name.

OnChildFocus(self, evt)¶

If the child window that gets the focus is not fully visible, this handler will try to scroll enough to see it.

Parameters: evt – a ChildFocusEvent event to be processed.

ScrollChildIntoView(self, child)¶

Scroll the panel so that the specified child window is in view.

Parameters: child (wx.Window) – any wx.Window - derived control.

Note

This method looks redundant if evt.Skip() is called as well - the base ScrolledWindow widget now seems to be doing the same thing anyway.

SetupScrolling(self, scroll_x=True, scroll_y=True, rate_x=20, rate_y=20, scrollToTop=True, scrollIntoView=True)¶

This function sets up the event handling necessary to handle scrolling properly. It should be called within the __init__ function of any class that is derived from ScrolledPanel, once the controls on the panel have been constructed and thus the size of the scrolling area can be determined.
