1. Enhancement request for wxEuphoria

I do not know if this fits the design philosophy of wxEuphoria, but this enhancement would greatly increase the usability of it, by allowing Cairo support. The main reason I use Cairo is to take advantage of being able to draw bezier curves. The main reason why most people use it is because it provides what is called anti aliasing. That means graphics appear smooth to the eye. Anyway, after much research online I found this from this site:

http://code.google.com/p/wxcairo/wiki/IntegratingWithCairo#Rendering_with_GTK

It is written in C + + unfortunately (I hate that language.)

 
#include <gdk/gdk.h> 
#include <gtk/gtk.h> 
#include <cairo.h> 
 
void MyClass::OnPaint(wxPaintEvent &WXUNUSED(event)) 
{ 
    wxPaintDC dc(this); 
     
    wxRect rect = GetClientRect(); 
     
    if(rect.width == 0 || rect.height == 0) 
    { 
        return; 
    } 
 
    // If it's GTK then use the gdk_cairo_create() method. The GdkDrawable object 
    // is stored in m_window of the wxPaintDC. 
    cairo_t* cairo_image = gdk_cairo_create(dc.m_window); 
    Render(cairo_image, rect.width, rect.height); 
    cairo_destroy(cairo_image); 
} 
 

The part I am requesting from wxEuphoria is to expose the dc.m_window - have a simple function which given the dc would return the m_window. If you think you should do more, that is okay. But I do need Cairo. I got this idea by looking at wxGraphics.cpp in the source for wxEuphoria.

Thanks.

A big one, but wxPropertyGrid would be nice to have
also wxFoldbar (deprecated ?)
and wxCollapsiblePanel

I've just committed wrapers to wxCollapsiblePanel into svn.

I've used a wxGrid before to simulate a basic property grid. Basically, create one column for your "values" and set the row header to each "property" name. You can even adjust the cell editors as necessary (combobox, etc.) for the full effect. Only feature I never got down was property grouping.
