wx.ListCtrl & Adding to a Tab
13 answers - 1353 bytes -
The wxWidgets docs for wx.ListCtrl are pretty thin; we're referred to an
example that does not exist. I _think_ it's the widget I need, but I cannot
tell from the information there. Then there's the issue of adding it below a
wx.FlexGridSizer on a notebook tab.
For each client, I want to display project number, project description,
start date, end date, and revenues. As projects accumulate over time, I'd
like to see these in a scrollable window. My naivety suggests that the
wx.ListCtrl is the appropriate widget. Is it?
Designing the layout with wxGlade (which I like more and more as I learn
where things are hidden -- thank you, Horst!), I have a tabbed notebook and
one of the tabs contains client information. Now, there is a wx.FlexGridSizer
on that tab, but it fills only the top half. I would like to place the
wx.ListCtrl beneath it on the same tab, but haven't stumbled across the
proper way to do this. A right-click on the notebook_pane line in the tree
window brings up a menu, but that contains no option to expand the widgets
placed on it. Immediately below the wx.FlexGridSizer is the next notebook
pane. How can I insert a second widget on the notebook tab? And, if this is
documented, please point me to the proper place.
TIA,
Rich

Sounds o.k. to me, check out the wxPython demo, in particular under the
Core/Windows control section the ListCtrl (provides support for sorting
of the column by clicking on the header) and/or ListCtrl_virtual if your
list is potentially very large this might be better - but no sorting
support (you will have to sort the data yourself as this list has no
control over it).

Sorry can't help with the wxGlade stuff.

See you

Hi JC,

A little google search for "postgresql python" found lots of stuff.

Here is one which looks interesting:

Werner,

Thanks for the pointer. It seems to me that using a custom grid table might
be better than the ListCtrl. In either case, the user needs to be able to
enter data in each "cell" or "column", and I've no idea of the relative
merits of each widget. Guess I'll try one and see how it works.

Thanks,

Rich

You mentioned "display" in your earlier post, in which case ListCtrl
would probably be better/faster. I let user then select a line and put
things into textCtrl's etc for user to edit, however if you want
"in-line" editing then it is more likely a Grid, but you might want to
look at the listctrl_edit example in the demo too.

See you
Werner

I have not idea how you'd do this with wxGlade, but by hand, you would:

create a custom w.Panel for this notebook page.

that Panel, you'd have a vertical box sizer. In that box sizer, you'd
have your FlexGridSizer on the top, and the ListCtrl (or wx.Grid) on the
bottom.

You can probably make wxGlade do that for you.

Sigh. course. Add another container beneath those two and there's no
problem.

chris,

For the record here's what I did:

1. Add a new tab to the end of the list (name "temp").
2. Copy FlexGridSizer from pane_2 to the temp tab, pane_4.
3. Delete FlexGridSizer from pane_2; replace with a vertical BoxSizer of
size 2.
4. Copy FlexGridSizer from pane_4 ("temp") to the upper compartment in
pane_2.
5. Delete the temp tab.
6. Add a ListCtrl to bottom container of pane_2.

Thanks,

Rich

I've been using for a while now. It seems to
work fine; no stability issues. The dev and users lists aren't very active
tho. Documentation is scarce, but just use the DB 2.0 API docs at python.org
to get started. The README is their only real documentation but it does have a
lot of information in it. Actual homepage is here:

http://www.pygresql.org seems to be the most widely known and used. But I
won't use it because they don't supply binaries for any platform. (I am too
busy building my own apps to have to do someone else's also. Just my opinion.)

Note that none of these have anything to do with wxPython per se. It's just
Python.

In theory you could use the DBC drivers to connect to PostgreSQL via its DBC
driver. But that seems like lots of extra layers. Haven't tried it.

Dabo has built-in connectivity for PostgreSQL. What do you need to do?

I second Rich's mothon.

I used pypgsql for a while, and ran into minor issues. Psycopg is more
actively maintaned and is a better performer, psycopg is a better
choice, IM

This is good feedback. I think I will try psycopg. It does seem to have
frequent releases. Best of all I just found this page that supplies Win32
binaries:
