Re: (wxPython) wx.ProgressDialog - how to cancel out of?
Thanks to both kyosohma and 7stud for the suggestions. I'll try variations on the code suggested by 7stud, and follow up to the wx-python list as kyosohma suggested if I need more help. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

(wxPython) wx.ProgressDialog - how to cancel out of?
I'm trying to use wx.ProgressBar, and the cancel button is not responding. Here is a simple program that exhibits the problem: # import wx import time max = 10 app = wx.PySimpleApp() dlg = wx.ProgressDialog(Progress dialog example, variables to be shown here, maximum = max, style = wx.PD_CAN_ABORT | wx.PD_CAN_SKIP #| wx.PD_APP_MODAL | wx.PD_ELAPSED_TIME | wx.PD_ESTIMATED_TIME | wx.PD_REMAINING_TIME ) keepGoing = True skip = False count = 0 while keepGoing and count max: count += 1 wx.MilliSleep(1000) #time.sleep(1) newtext = (before) count: %s, keepGoing: %s, skip: %s % \ (count, keepGoing, skip) print newtext (keepGoing, skip) = dlg.Update(count, newtext) newtext = (after) count: %s, keepGoing: %s, skip: %s % \ (count, keepGoing, skip) print newtext dlg.Destroy() # The dialog looks right when this runs, but What's right: I get a progress bar; it includes Skip and Cancel buttons; it shows 10 seconds of progress, and updates once per second with the variables' values on each iteration. What's wrong is that I can't get clicking on the Skip or Cancel buttons to have any effect. Instead, as soon as the dialog displays, I get an hourglass, and it doesn't matter what I click on. Here's what the print statements display, consistently, regardless of what I try to click or whether I click nothing at all: I:\pythontest1.py (before) count: 1, keepGoing: True, skip: False (after) count: 1, keepGoing: True, skip: False (before) count: 2, keepGoing: True, skip: False (after) count: 2, keepGoing: True, skip: True (before) count: 3, keepGoing: True, skip: True (after) count: 3, keepGoing: True, skip: True (before) count: 4, keepGoing: True, skip: True (after) count: 4, keepGoing: True, skip: True (before) count: 5, keepGoing: True, skip: True (after) count: 5, keepGoing: True, skip: True (before) count: 6, keepGoing: True, skip: True (after) count: 6, keepGoing: True, skip: True (before) count: 7, keepGoing: True, skip: True (after) count: 7, keepGoing: True, skip: True (before) count: 8, keepGoing: True, skip: True (after) count: 8, keepGoing: True, skip: True (before) count: 9, keepGoing: True, skip: True (after) count: 9, keepGoing: True, skip: True (before) count: 10, keepGoing: True, skip: True (after) count: 10, keepGoing: True, skip: True Two oddities here: 1) As I read the docs, the keepGoing variable should be set to True, unless I click on Cancel, in which case it should be set to False (which would end the loop). That doesn't happen. This is really what I'm most concerned here with. 2) The variable skip: set to False on the first iteration, and then set to True on subsequent iterations? Note that this happens even if no buttons are selected. This is just a weirdness to me, and not my main concern, but I thought I'd mention it in case it's relevant. You can see some variations in the commented-out code that I tried; they did not help.

The code looks very similar to the example in the demo. Maybe you can look at it and see the difference? The only thing I see is that the demo embeds the ProgressDialog into a Panel object.

Supposedly a progress dialog does not work well on its own because events get screwed up when there isn't a main loop.

Or, if you want the progress dialog to start when your app starts-- rather than after a user clicks on a button--you can use a short timer: import wx app = wx.PySimpleApp() win = wx.Frame(None, -1, Test Progress Dialog) timer = wx.Timer(win) #win.Bind(wx.EVT_TIMER, on_timer_expiry, timer) def on_timer_expiry(evt): max = 10 dialog = wx.ProgressDialog( Loading, progress:, max, style = wx.PD_CAN_ABORT |wx.PD_ELAPSED_TIME |wx.PD_ESTIMATED_TIME |wx.PD_REMAINING_TIME ) keep_going = True skip = False count = 0 while keep_going and (count max): count += 1 wx.MilliSleep(1000) (keep_going, skip) = dialog.Update(count) print skip dialog.Destroy() timer.Stop() win.Bind(wx.EVT_TIMER, on_timer_expiry, timer) timer.Start(1000) win.Show() app.MainLoop() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

This is just a weirdness to me, and not my main concern, but I thought I'd mention it in case it's relevant. The docs say: wx.PD_CAN_SKIP This flag tells the dialog that it should have a Skip button which the user may press. If this happens, the next call to Update() will return True in the second component of its return value. What I'm seeing is: the second item in the tuple returned by Update() is False if the skip button wasn't clicked and it's True for one return value when the skip button was clicked, then the value reverts back to False when Update() returns the next time. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
