1. wxEuphoria handholding please
Hi
I'm just playing around with some wxeuphoria things, and I was wondering if
there was any way to create a container for a bitmap, so I could put the
container ont a window.
The example bitmap_background paints the background directly onto window, like
this
wxframe
+- bitmap
what I would like to do is this
wxframe
+-wxpanel
+-bitmap
Or is there a bitmap container, that I have missed.
Also is there any way of giving the panel an attributue - sunken, raised, border
etc? Or am I using the wrong component?
Also (sorry) when you load a bitmap (of whatever type) into memory, is what is
in memory compatible with other graphics libraries bitmaps-in-memory (GDI,
Freeimage etc)

You can paint directly to a wxPanel, and yes, you can give a panel styles
using the wxSUNKEN_BORDER, wxRAISED_BORDER window styles.

There's an undocumented function in the windows version called
wxBitmap_GetHBITMAP, which probably does what you want. Under linux, there's
one called wxBitmap_GetPixmap, which I suspect does something similar.

Ah, not documented. How do you vary the size of a panel within a frame - it
seems the panel defaults to filling the frame at the moment, and how do you alter
the size of the border.

Hi
wxStaticBox and wxStaticLine also do not seem to be documented.

If there is only one child of a wxFrame, it will automatically resize itself
to fill the frame. I recommend creating a wxPanel to do this, and then you
can use additional wxPanels or wxWindows for things like what you're doing.
