how does one tell the screen to Refresh from within another module?

I have the standard:
from RegWindow import *
class main_window(wx.Frame):
def __init__(self, parent, title):
"""."""
# Actual Window size on screen
fullsize=wx.Size(850,900)
# Create our main window
wx.Frameinit__(self, parent, title=title, size=fullsize,
style=wx.DEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE)
rw=RegWindow(self.scroll, ID=-1, Registration=rg,
(rg.Rg_SeNo))
weekoverviewSizer.Add(rw, pos=(srow,col), span=(erow,1),
flag=wx.EXPAND)
self.scroll.SetSizer(weekoverviewSizer)
self.scroll.SetupScrolling(self, rate_x=20, rate_y=50)
fullsize=wx.Size(1000,900)
self.Centre()
class App(wx.App):
"""wxProject Application."""
def Init(self):
"""Create the wxProject Application."""
self.frame = main_window(None, 'Planning Assistant')
self.frame.Show(True)
return True
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = App(redirect=False)
app.MainLoop()
in one module. Then I have the following in RegWindow.py:
class RegWindow(wx.Panel):
def __init__(self, parent, ID=-1, Registration=None,
pos=wx.DefaultPosition, size=(85,2),
BackgroundColour="white"):
wx.Panelinit__(self, parent, ID, pos, size, wx.RAISED_BRDER)
self.Registration=Registration
self.SetBackgroundColour(BackgroundColour)
self.Bind(wx.EVT_CNTEXT_MENU,
RightMouseButtonDRegistration)
def RightMouseButtonDRegistration(self, event):
pos = event.GetPosition()
print event.GetId(), pos
RgNo=IDtoRgNoDict[event.GetId()][1]
pos = self.ScreenToClient(pos)
self.popupmenu = wx.Menu()
self.sessubmenu = wx.Menu()
self.regsubmenu = wx.Menu()
reg=regsdict[RgNo]
for room in reg.Session.getAvailableRooms():
item=self.sessubmenu.Append(-1, room)
IDtoRgNoDict[item.GetId()]=['session', RgNo]
self.sessubmenu.Bind(wx.EVT_MENU, RoomSelected, item)
self.popupmenu.Bind(wx.EVT_MENU, RoomSelected, item)
for room in reg.getAvailableRooms():
item=self.regsubmenu.Append(-1, room)
IDtoRgNoDict[item.GetId()]=['registration', RgNo]
self.regsubmenu.Bind(wx.EVT_MENU, RoomSelected, item)
self.popupmenu.Bind(wx.EVT_MENU, RoomSelected, item)
item = self.popupmenu.AppendMenu(-1, 'Move entire session',
self.sessubmenu)
item = self.popupmenu.AppendMenu(-1, 'Move only this
registration', self.regsubmenu)
item = self.popupmenu.Append(-1, 'Add comment')
self.popupmenu.Bind(wx.EVT_MENU, AddComment, item)
item = self.popupmenu.Append(-1, 'Assign PCs')
item = self.popupmenu.Append(-1, 'Assign tasks')
item = self.popupmenu.Append(-1, 'Show tasks status')
self.PopupMenu(self.popupmenu, pos)
def RoomSelected(self, event):
''' The user selected a room number in a pop up menu, now we
need to move the applicable session
or registration to this room
'''
self.SetFocus()
#The text of the item (submenu) contains the room number
(event.GetId())
Room=item.GetText()
# The RgNo-IDFFSET was stored in a dictionary, indexed on the
ID that was assigned to the submenu item
RgNo=IDtoRgNoDict[event.GetId()][1]
# whether it concerns a Registration or an entire Session that
needs to be moved is stored there as well
type=IDtoRgNoDict[event.GetId()][0]
sizer=self.GetContainingSizer()
if type == 'session':
Sess=sessdict[regsdict[RgNo].Rg_SeNo]
Sess.setRoom(Room=Room)
for rg in Sess.Registrations:
rw=RgNoToRWDict[rg.RgNo]
sizer.Detach(rw)
srow, erow, col = CalculateRowCol(rg, rg.Session.SeLoc_CoNo)
RgNoToRWDict[rg.RgNo]=sizer.Add(rw,pos=(srow,col),
span=(erow,1), flag=wx.EXPAND)
sizer.Layout()
if type == 'registration':
Reg=regsdict[RgNo]
Reg.setRoom(Room=Room)
# Detach our RegWindow from its current position
sizer.Layout()
rg=regsdict[RgNo]
srow, erow, col = CalculateRowCol(rg, rg.Session.SeLoc_CoNo)
sizer.Add(self,pos=(srow,col), span=(erow,1), flag=wx.EXPAND)
# Redraw the screen, DESN'T WRK, even when done twice for good
measure
sizer.Layout()
sizer.Layout()
# print dir(wxPlanningAssistant.App.frame)
app.frame.Refresh() # DESN'T WRK, NameError: global name 'app'
is not defined. It does exactly what I need from within PyCrust though.
# ()
When a room is selected in the context sensitive menu. The RegWindow is
moved to another spot in the sizer. Then the screen needs to be
refreshed. If I do it manually by resizing or by maximizing, everything
looks K, but I want to do it programmatically. The problem is that from
within the RoomSelected handler I cannot get a reference to the frame.
Do I have to import the main module into RegWindow.py? That seems like
spaghetti to me, two modules each importing the other and it doesn't
work then either. With something that is contained in a sizer, it's
possible to get the containing sizer object, but there is no method on
the sizer object to obtain the containing panel object.
I hope somebody can help me with this and I also hope I didn't take out
too much of code for the example. I tried to just post the essential
bits to show what I'm trying to achieve.
Kind regards,
Jo
