You will probably need to create a TextCtrl with the appropriate style
and append your new data. I have given an example below that should
automatically scroll with your new data.
#in __init__
self.scrolling_widget = wx.TextCtrl( self, wx.ID_ANY, '', size=(-1, 275),
style=wx.TE_AUTO_SCROLL|wx.TE_READONLY|wx.TE_PROCESS_ENTER|wx.TE_WORDWRAP|wx.TE_MULTILINE

Hey,
I added this the above 3 lines of code to my file and ran it. the box
shows up on the far left, mostly of the pane, to the left of the current
text feilds. I am having trouble positioning this textbox under where
the current text fields are.
I am not sure but maybe this sets up the grid on the pane:
sizer = wx.GridBagSizer(hgap=10, vgap=10)
self.fields = {}
all the current TextCtrl fields are positioned at (1,1) through (5,5).
I tried adding:
sizer.Add(field, pos=(1,6))
but it did not move the box to the position?
Just to make sure, you did call it field and not self.scrolling_widget
(which was in my example)?
Odd that they don't start at (0,0) when adding to the bag. This is
more a wxpython question and their mailing list might prove more
useful. I could figure it out, but I cannot run the app. Trial
and error here will probably help you the most. You can also
try looking at a different sizer (like BoxSizer and GridSizer).
Personally, I think BoxSizer is the most intuitive as it matches
my thought process. You just set an orientation (vertical/horizontal)
and add widgets to it. To get something in the other direction, you
create another box sizer with the opposite orientation, add widgets
to that sizer, and then add the new sizer to the original sizer. Not
nearly as pretty as grid/grid bag though (by default), but super simple.

Hey,
if i put:
self.logfile = open('logfile.csv', 'w')
in the .py file, within the 'class TrafficPane', then shouldn't
logfile.csv be written to the directory the .py file is in? because its
not there after running the program? Where should i look for it?
Thanks
Matt
It should put it in the current directory. That *may* be the directory
the script is in, but not necessarily. It's easy to run something like:
python somdir/myscript.py
in which case the file would be in the parent directory to myscript.py
Note that in some environments, the current directory is invisibly set
to some convenient place. For example, when right-clicking on a script
in Windows Explorer, they make the bald assumption that you want to set
the current directory the same as the location of the script. That's
about the worse place for it, but nevermind.
