Regards, jm Hi, have been just trying for 5 hours with the timer demo in wx, i just havnt clicked with how to tie it in together, I know (think) i need the following features from the timer demo , where you can periodically call a function using the wx.timer self.Bind(wx.EVT_TIMER, self.OnTest1Timer) #---(bind to the frame ?)

You don't need of course, it's just for demo information. def OnTest3Start(self, evt): self.t3 = NotifyTimer(self.log) self.t3.Start(1000) self.log.write(NotifyTimer timer started\n) self.t3b2.Enable() #---(the Start i guess i will work if i remap the button event to an on load type? event? def OnTest3Stop(self, evt): self.t3.Stop() self.log.write(NotifyTimer timer stoped\n) del self.t3 self.t3b2.Disable() #---(Guess i wont need to stop the timer, as i want it to trigger the 'refreshing' of the StaticBitmaps ?) # When deriving from wx.Timer you must provide a Notify method # that will be called when the timer expires. class NotifyTimer(wx.Timer): def __init__(self, log): wx.Timer.__init__(self) self.log = log def Notify(self): self.log.write(got NotifyTimer event\n) #---(dont know if i need this if i dont want to use this log feature)? Im sorry if this all seems really amatuerish, i have genuially tried hard to get my head around it , but i get error after error in boa. Boa is well done for editing, simple objects generation, also for learning, but not for complex operation. It's not a good idea to use it for your present need. Somewhone couldnt append a timer and perhaps help to refresh the StaticBitmaps described, with the code, in first post). I will be able to see and learn greatly from this. Maybe some advice on where to find lists of the methods used in wxpython For example it took me hours to find methods ? like In the help file, there is an alphabetic classes list, with (quite) all the methods. StaticBitmap.SetImage(imageName) Is there any good lists of these methods, properties etc for wxpython controls? See before. This is the best, and also the demo (and also the sources). Any good wxpython ide/editors that can intellisense them? boa, komodo, stani's arnt working with intellisensing wx for me, (maybe i cant configure them though) The best is probably boa, because it have got a debugger, with a separate process launched for testing. Thanks for any help with any of this Regards All what you have to do is : def __init__(self, parent): self._init_ctrls(parent) self.t1 = wx.Timer(self) self.t1.Start(2000) # 2 seconds self.Bind(wx.EVT_TIMER, self.OnTest1Timer) def OnTest1Timer(self, evt): if os.path.isfile('App1.py'): i = wx.Image('image.jpg',wx.BITMAP_TYPE_JPEG) b1 = wx.BitmapFromImage(i) self.staticBitmap1.SetBitmap(b1) And you can continue to use Boa as usual. Hope you'll enjoy, jm Ps: tested on xp, pretty sure it works also on linux. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Newbie wxpython staticbitmap help please
Thanks Jean this now makes sense, really appreciate your time and effort mate. def __init__(self, parent): self._init_ctrls(parent) self.t1 = wx.Timer(self) self.t1.Start(2000) # 2 seconds self.Bind(wx.EVT_TIMER, self.OnTest1Timer) self.OnTest1Timer(self) def OnTest1Timer(self, evt): if os.path.isfile('images/page1.txt'): print ok file present i = wx.Image('images/pageGreen.png',wx.BITMAP_TYPE_PNG) b1 = wx.BitmapFromImage(i) self.staticBitmap1.SetBitmap(b1) else: print ok file present i = wx.Image('images/pageGrey.png',wx.BITMAP_TYPE_PNG) b1 = wx.BitmapFromImage(i) self.staticBitmap1.SetBitmap(b1) The above works a treat, thanks again Jean janama -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

janama a écrit : Can somewhone add a wx.Timer example to this to make it check if the file exists every minute or so , instead of clicking the button to check and update this? Or is there a better way of auto updating my little gui apps StaticBitmap if a file exists? Why won't you write it yourself using the demo ? It's clear and well documented.

Re: Newbie wxpython staticbitmap help please
Thanks for any help with any of this I have no time at the moment. I'm going to try to give you an answer tomorrow morning (june 16) (if nobody did of course). See you jm -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
