Hmmm... I've never needed one, so I never wrapped it. Can you create a
ticket so that I don't forget to add this to the Class Designer?

You can't add one to the Class Designer and interact with it; the
'wrapping' I mention is the glue that lets the Class Designer interact with the
control.
You could do it in code, but it would be tricky, since you'd have to
find the panel that would be created by the empty slot, get its parent, sizer
position and settings, remove the panel, add the masked textbox to the parent,
insert it into the sizer at the same position and apply the sizer settings.
An easier way to play with the class is to simply run it. Every control
class has self-test code which is run if you run the control's script directly.
IOW, cd to the 'uiwx' directory, and run:
python dMaskedTextBox.py
Feel free to modify the code in the block beginning with: if __name__
== "__main__" if you want to try stuff out.
