Announcing wxPython 4.0.4
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/wxPython/4.0.4
|
|
Extras: https://extras.wxPython.org/wxPython4/extras/
|
|
Pip: ``pip install wxPython==4.0.4``
|
|
|
|
Changes in this release include the following:
|
|
|
|
* Fixed an issue where wx.lib.intctrl would erroneously attempt to use
|
|
long on Python3. (#898)
|
|
|
|
* Include the MSVC runtime DLLs for Python 3.7 builds too.
|
|
|
|
* Clear LIBPATH_PYEXT and LIB_PYEXT for linux builds too. (#904)
|
|
|
|
* Added a dependency on the Pillow package since it's used in some
|
|
wx.lib.agw modules. (PR #908)
|
|
|
|
* Add flag to hide page in wx.lib.agw.aui.notebook. (#895)
|
|
|
|
* Switch wx.lib.plot to issue deprecation warnings with
|
|
PlotPendingDeprecation so it doesn't have to enable all warnings to
|
|
get them to be shown by default. (#902)
|
|
|
|
* Added a Python 3.7 builder on Fedora 28. (#925)
|
|
|
|
* Fix the object ownership transfer for wx.Menu.Insert() (#931)
|
|
|
|
* Added wx.Treebook.GetTreeCtrl, wx.Listbook.GetListView and
|
|
wx.Choicebook.GetChoiceCtrl. (#918)
|
|
|
|
* Removed the wx.BookCtrlBase.RemovePage workaround as it was causing
|
|
problems and doesn't seem to be necessary any more. The existing
|
|
wxWidgets assertions are catching the out of range error just fine,
|
|
however if wxWidgets was built without the debug helpers turned on
|
|
then it could still cause a crash. (#888)
|
|
|
|
* Reverted the changes which removed the content of the wx.lib.pubsub
|
|
package and encouraged users to switch to the real PyPubSub package
|
|
instead. Removing it caused more issues than were expected so it has
|
|
been restored and the code updated to PyPubSub v3.3.0. Version 4.0.0
|
|
is available upstream, but it is not compatible with Python
|
|
2.7. Now, wx.lib.pubsub is actually deprecated instead of just
|
|
trying to pass control over to the upstream PyPubSub library. (#932)
|
|
|
|
* Improve calltip stability in pyshell. (#941)
|
|
|
|
* Fix TypeError in wx.lib.throbber. (#924)
|
|
|
|
* Fix missing parameter tool_id in
|
|
wx.lib.agw.ribbon.toolbar.RibbonToolBar.AddToggleTool. (#947)
|
|
|
|
* Add a step to wx.Config.ReadInt to attempt converting from long to
|
|
int under python2. (#384)
|
|
|
|
* Add virtual behavior for wx.RichTextCtrl and wx.TextCtrl's
|
|
Copy/Cut/Paste methods and their Can* counterparts. (#954)
|
|
|
|
* Fix IO type in wx.lib.agw.thumbnailctrl (#959)
|
|
|
|
* Fix type error that would occur using pycolourchooser. (#957)
|
|
|
|
* Optimize line drawing in HyperTreeList. (#973)
|
|
|
|
* Add wrapper for wx.StaticBox.GetBordersForSizer and use it in the
|
|
demo to do platform-specific layout of the items in the
|
|
StaticBox. (#974)
|
|
|
|
* Update wx.Point, wx.RealPoint, and wx.Size to use floating point
|
|
arithmetic when conducting scalar multiplication (#971)
|
|
|
|
* Fix load/save bugs in PySlices (PR#978)
|
|
|
|
* Replace deprecated PIL.Image.tostring (PR#1005)
|
|
|
|
* Fix rendering and mouse sensitivity in UltimateListCtrl when adding
|
|
HyperText items. (#1010)
|
|
|
|
* Added a parameter to lib.agw.CustomTreeCtrl.SetItemWindow(), to
|
|
allow positioning the Window (a small image) on the left of text in
|
|
a CustomTreeItem. (#PR886).
|
|
|
|
* Declared DeleteAllPages in the notebook subclasses, so the proper
|
|
C++ implementation will be called. (#972)
|
|
|
|
* Removed wx.lib.floatbar, which has been deprecated forever and
|
|
probably hasn't been working in nearly as long. (#976)
|
|
|
|
* Updated SIP to version 4.19.13.
|
|
|
|
* Fix an issue in wx.lib.agw.aui.AuiManager where the orientation of
|
|
an AuiToolBar would not be updated when calling
|
|
LoadPerspective. (#917)
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a bug in wx.FileSystemHandler.OpenFile where the object
|
|
ownership was not being transferred correctly, causing a crash after
|
|
a premature object deletion. (#926)
|
|
|
|
* Fixed wx.ListCtrl.Append when wx.LC_SORT style is used, so appending
|
|
items out of order does not lose the data for the remaining
|
|
columns. (#906)
|
|
|
|
* Add wx.Accessible, it's Windows-only, will raise a
|
|
NotImplementedError exception on the other platforms. (#958)
|
|
|
|
* Added the ability to generate stub classes for use when optional
|
|
wxWidgets features are not part of the build. So far, stubs are
|
|
available for wx.Accessible, wx.FileSystemWatcher, wx.glcanvas,
|
|
wx.media and wx.html2.
|
|
|
|
* Moved the wxpy_api.h file into the wx package at wx/include/wxPython
|
|
so it will be included in the wheel file. (#961)
|
|
|
|
* Fixed how string data is added to a virtual file-like object in
|
|
wx.MemoryFSHandler. All strings are now added to the file as utf-8
|
|
encoded data, in both Python2 and Python3, and will be read from the
|
|
virtual file the same way. If you need to use some other encoding
|
|
for some reason you can first convert the text to a bytesarray or
|
|
other buffer protocol compatible object and then create the virtual
|
|
file from that data. (#969)
|
|
|
|
* Performance update for wx.lib.agw.customtreectrl (#1049)
|
|
|
|
* Ensure that colours set in wx.lib.agw.customtreectrl.TreeItemAttr
|
|
are instances of wx.Colour. (#1032)
|
|
|
|
* Fix drawing of ticks in wx.lib.agw.speedmeter when there are
|
|
negative bounds values. (#1013)
|
|
|
|
* wxWidgets for Mac includes the wxJoystick class now, also update the
|
|
demo. (#997)
|
|
|
|
* Fix wx.html.HtmlPrintout to not be seen as an abstract class, so it
|
|
can be instantiated. (#1060)
|
|
|
|
* Fix wx.aui.AuiNotbook.SetArtProvider to properly transfer ownership
|
|
of the art object from Python to C++. This possible double-deletion
|
|
and related crashing problems. (#1061)
|
|
|
|
* Fixed the wrappers for wx.html.HtmlWindow.OnOpeningURL to properly
|
|
handle the redirect output parameter. (#1068) This is a
|
|
backwards-incompatible change, please see the Migration Guide for
|
|
details.
|
|
|
|
* TabNavigatorWindow works similarly to other programs now. It's
|
|
resizable and draggable so if user has tons of files with long names,
|
|
it isn't an irritation anymore plastered right in the middle of the
|
|
screen and can't be worked with easily and ESC now cancels the popup
|
|
with a proper returnId. (#1096)
|
|
|
|
* Added missing methods in wx.ListBox, SetItemForegroundColour,
|
|
SetItemBackgroundColour and SetItemFont. (#1095)
|
|
|
|
* Backported a fix in wxWidgets that avoids crashing in hhctrl.ocx
|
|
when using context sensitive help in 64-bit builds on
|
|
Windows. (#1104)

What is wxPython?
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
wxPython is a cross-platform GUI toolkit for the Python programming
|
|
language. It allows Python programmers to create programs with a
|
|
robust, highly functional graphical user interface, simply and
|
|
easily. It is implemented as a set of Python extension modules that
|
|
wrap the GUI components of the popular wxWidgets cross platform
|
|
library, which is written in C++. Supported platforms are Microsoft
|
|
Windows, Mac OS X and macOS, and Linux or other unix-like systems with
|
|
GTK2 or GTK3 libraries. In most cases the native widgets are used on
|
|
each platform to provide a 100% native look and feel for the
|
|
application.
|
|
|
|
|
|
What is wxPython Phoenix?
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
wxPython's Project Phoenix is a new from-the-ground-up implementation
|
|
of wxPython, created with the intent of making wxPython “better,
|
|
stronger, faster than he was before.” In other words, this new
|
|
implementation is focused on improving speed, maintainability and
|
|
extensibility of wxPython, as well as removing most of the cruft that
|
|
had accumulated over the long life of Classic wxPython.
|
|
|
|
The project has been in development off and on, mostly behind the
|
|
scenes, for many years. For the past few years automated snapshot
|
|
builds have been available for those adventurous enough to try it, and
|
|
many people eventually started using the snapshots in their projects,
|
|
even for production releases. While there are still some things on
|
|
the periphery that need to be completed, the core of the new wxPython
|
|
extension modules which wrap the wxWidgets code has been stable for a
|
|
long time now.
|
|
|
|
Due to some things being cleaned up, reorganized, simplified and
|
|
dehackified wxPython Phoenix is not completely backwards compatible
|
|
with wxPython Classic. This is intended. In general, however, the API
|
|
differences tend to be minor and some applications can use Phoenix
|
|
with slight, or even with no modifications. In some other cases the
|
|
correct way to do things was also available in Classic and it's only
|
|
the wrong way that has been removed from Phoenix. For more
|
|
information there is a Migration Guide document available at:
|
|
https://docs.wxpython.org/MigrationGuide.html
|
|

|
|
Python-specific additions and customizations, and docs for the wx.lib
|
|
package, is located at: https://docs.wxpython.org/
