ok im sure there is a way and ive looked all over the place but i cant seem
to find any way to make a frame that is unable to be resized, any help would
be appreciated.

SetSizeHints() will do it, if you set the minSize and maxSize the same.

There is also this hint in the wx docs, under wx.Frame Window styles:

"""
The default frame style is for normal, resizeable frames. To create a
frame which can not be resized by user, you may use the following
combination of styles:

wxDEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE & ~ (wxRESIZE_BRDER | wxRESIZE_BX | wxMAXIMIZE_BX)

Chris,

Hm-m-m. How interesting. page 45 of Rappin & Dunn we read, "To remove
individual style bits from a composed style, you use the bitwise exclusive
or (XR) operator, ^." They then provide the example of:

wx.DEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE ^ (wx.RESIZE_BRDER | wx. MINIMIZE_BX |
wx.MAXIMIZE_BX)

The envelope, please.

The method Chris quoted is the one I've always used for turning off bits. I
wouldn't trust the XR method because it only works if you know for sure what
bits are currently set in the initial value. If someone decides to change
that value then you'll actually start turning bits on, not off.

Example:

INITIAL_VALUE = 0xffff
UNWANTED_BIT = 0x0001
print hex(INITIAL_VALUE & ~ UNWANTED_BIT)
0xfffe
print hex(INITIAL_VALUE ^ UNWANTED_BIT)
0xfffe
INITIAL_VALUE = 0xfffe # Some evil person has changed our initial value!
print hex(INITIAL_VALUE & ~ UNWANTED_BIT)
0xfffe
print hex(INITIAL_VALUE ^ UNWANTED_BIT)
0xffff

works perfect i used wxDEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE & ~ (wxRESIZE_BRDER |
wxRESIZE_BX | wxMAXIMIZE_BX) thats exactly what i was looking for

thanks

Chris,

Hm-m-m. How interesting. page 45 of Rappin & Dunn we read, "To remove
individual style bits from a composed style, you use the bitwise exclusive
or (XR) operator, ^." They then provide the example of:

wx.DEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE ^ (wx.RESIZE_BRDER | wx. MINIMIZE_BX |
wx.MAXIMIZE_BX)

That can work too[1], but it is typically done with ANDing the bitwise
compliment into the original value. I've added an errata to change the
text to show it that way.

[1] A bitwise XR sets a 1 bit if only one of the bits compared was a 1.
For example:

1 == 001 binary
2 == 010 binary
4 == 100 binary
6 == 110 binary

6 ^ 2
4
6 ^ 4
2
6 ^ 6
0

Using the AND with the bitwise complement (inversion of the bits)
accomplishes the same thing since AND will only result in a 1 if both of
the bits compared are 1. For example:

6 & ~2
4
6 & ~4
2
6 & ~6
0

The problem with XR is that it doesn't care if it is turning bits on or
off. For example:

6 ^ 1
7
6 & ~1
6

Thanks for clarifying, Robin. I had just read past that page so the
example was fresh in mind.
