If i leave the single quotes off PERL complains that I "cannot use
barewords when strict is enabled" (or something to that effect.
I ended up figuring out that for some reason PERL is unable to map those
"wxTE_xxxx" options to their values. I had to dig into to the WX
source code and find the actual hex values that they signify and use
those. Once I replaced "wxTE_Multiline" with 0x0020, everything began
working...

Hi Brad,
I haven't run your code, but from looking at it, you don't need the
single quotes or the brackets around the styles.
Each style is just a function eg wxID_ANY just says,
sub wxID_ANY {return -1};
So it's not:
('wxTE_MULTILINE' | 'wxTE_READONLY' | 'wxTE_WORDWRAP' ),
but,
wxTE_MULTILINE | wxTE_READONLY | wxTE_WORDWRAP,
That should fix it,
Regards

Hello,
I'm having some problems getting styles to take effect on a TextCtrl box.
I'm using a TextCtrl to display the response to an HTTP request and it's
getting written to the TextCtrl in one super long line. I'd like to wrap
the text and use all of the vertical space in the window.
Here is how I'm creating my TextCtrl, but the styles simply don't seem to be
taking effect.
/ $self->{Response_Text} = Wx::TextCtrl->new($panel, # parent//
// 6, # id//
// "", # label//
// [100, 275], # position//
// [500, 400], # text control size [width,
height] //
// ('wxTE_MULTILINE' | 'wxTE_READONLY' |
'wxTE_WORDWRAP' ),//
// );/
I've also tried to experimenting with wxTE_PASSWORD because it seemed like
an easy way to test to see if I could get any styles to apply, but nothing
seems to actually work.... any advice?
