Pip: ``pip install wxPython==4.1.0``
|
||||
|
||||
This release is comprised mostly of fixes and minor features which have been
|
||||
back-ported from the master branch. This release is likely the last release of
|
||||
the 4.0.x release series, and is certainly the last 4.0.x release that will
|
||||
support Python 2.7. It may still continue to build for Python 2.7 for some time,
|
||||
but no extra effort will be expended to keep it compatible.
|
||||
Starting with this release wxPython has switched to tracking the wxWidgets
|
||||
master branch (version 3.1.x) for the wxWidgets source code, which wxPython is
|
||||
built upon, and which is included in the wxPython source archives.
|
||||
|
||||
Support for building for Python 3.8 has been added, as well as 3.8 binaries on
|
||||
PyPI for Windows and MacOS.
|
||||
New and improved in this release:
|
||||
|
||||
This release provides the following changes:
|
||||
* Add wx.Font.AddPrivateFont example to the demo.
|
||||
|
||||
* Bug fixes in wx.lib.calendar: key navigation across month boundaries is now
|
||||
possible; key navigation now sets the date and fires the EVT_CALENDAR event;
|
||||
* Added wrappers for the OSXEnableAutomaticQuoteSubstitution,
|
||||
OSXEnableAutomaticDashSubstitution, and OSXDisableAllSmartSubstitutions
|
||||
methods in wx.TextCtrl. Also added OSXEnableAutomaticTabbing in wx.App.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added wx.ColourDialogEvent, wx.DCTextBgColourChanger, wx.DCTextBgModeChanger,
|
||||
wx.grid.GridCellDateRenderer, wx.grid.GridCellDateEditor, wx.SystemAppearance,
|
||||
etc.
|
||||
|
||||
* Many of the deprecated items in wxWidgets and wxPython are being or have
|
||||
been removed. Be sure to test your code in a recent 4.0.x release with
|
||||
warnings enabled so you can see which class, method or function calls you need
|
||||
to change.
|

|

* Bug fixes in wx.lib.calendar: key navigation across month boundaries is now
|

possible; key navigation now sets the date and fires the EVT_CALENDAR event;
|

setter APIs now set the date correctly (#1230).

|
||||
* Fixed issue in wx.lib.agw.customtreectrl where label editor could remain
|
||||
stuck forever (#1235).
|
||||
|
||||
* Grafted on a EnableSystemTheme method to the classes which support it. This
|
||||
can be used to disable the default system theme on Windows for native widgets
|
||||
like wx.ListCtrl, wx.TreeCtrl and wx.dataview.DataViewCtrl. It has no effect
|
||||
on the other platforms.
|
||||
|
||||
* The wx.WS_EX_VALIDATE_RECURSIVELY extended style flag is obsolete, as it is
|
||||
now the default (and only) behavior. The style flag has been added back into
|
||||
wxPython for compatibility, but with a zero value. You can just stop using it
|
||||
in your code with no change in behavior. (#1278)
|
||||
|
||||
* Fix a sometimes crash when using a wx.Overlay by letting the wx.DCOverlay hold
|
||||
a reference to the DC, to ensure that the DCOverlay is destroyed first.
|
||||
(PR#1301)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Replaced the Vagrant VMs used for building wxPython for various Linux distros
|
||||
with Docker images.
|
||||
|
||||
* Add some missing methods in wx.adv.BitmapComboBox (#1307)
|
||||
|
||||
* Added the wx.svg package which contains code for parsing SVG (Scalable Vector
|
||||
Graphics) files, and also code for integrating with wxPython. It can rasterize
|
||||
the SVG to a wx.Bitmap of any size with no loss of quality, and it can also
|
||||
render the SVG directly to a wx.GraphicsContext using the GC's drawing
|
||||
primitives. (PR #1323)
|
||||
|
||||
* Ported the embedding sample from Classic, which shows how to use wxPython from
|
||||
a C++ wxWidgets application that embeds Python. (PR #1353)
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed wx.GetApp() to use wxWidgets' global wxApp instance instead of

||||
* Fixed wx.GetApp() to use wxWidgets' global wxApp instance instead of
|
||||
maintaining its own pointer. This way, if the wxApp is created by C++ code
|
||||
wxPython will still be able to get access to it. (#1126)
|
||||
|
||||
* Several other PRs have been backported from the master branch (which will
|
||||
become wxPython 4.1.0), the full list can be seen here:
|
||||
https://github.com/wxWidgets/Phoenix/pull/1357
|
||||
|
||||
* Added wrappers for the wx.ActivityIndicator class.
|
||||
|
||||
* Added wrappers for the wx.CollapsibleHeaderCtrl class.
|
||||
|
||||
* Fixed issues in PlotCanvas around displaying and using scrollbars. (#1428)
|
||||
|
||||
* Added wx.msw.CHMHelpController, and also a wx.HelpController factory function
|
||||
that creates an instance of the best Help Controller for the platform. (#1536)
|
||||
|
||||
* Added wx.adv.GenericAnimationCtrl so the generic version of the animation classes
|
||||
can be used even on the platforms that have a native version. Note that due to
|
||||
internal changes to support both types of animations, some API changes in how
|
||||
the Animation objects are created. See the AnimationCtrl.py sample in the demo
|
||||
for the various usage patterns (#1579)
