Hello,
I am trying to capture keyboard events. Here is some stripped down code
at my attempt.
It doesn't seem to react to key presses?
Any help would be very appreciated!
thnx,
Ray Sells
import wx
class Frame( wx.Frame):
def __init__( self, image = None, parent = None, id = -1,
pos = wx.DefaultPosition,
title = 'C++ Model Developer'):
"""Create a Frame instance and display an image."""
wx.Frameinit__( self, parent, id, title, pos, size = ( 400, 300))
panel = wx.Panel( self)
panel.button = wx.Button( panel, -1, "Close", pos = ( 100, 100))
self.Bind( wx.EVT_BUTTN, ButtonClick)
self.Bind( wx.EVT_KEY_DWN, Key)
def ButtonClick( self, event):
print "Button clicked!"
def Key( self, event):
k = event.GetKeyCode()
print "key code is", k
class App( wx.App):
def Init( self):
self.frame = Frame()
self.frame.Show()
self.SetTopWindow( self.frame)
return True
def main():
app = App( False)
app.MainLoop()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()

Hello Ray:

I think your problem is that you are binding to the frame, rather than
the button. This works for command events, such as button click, but
not for normal events, such as key down. The solution is to use

panel.button.Bind(wx.EVT_KEY_DWN, Key)

instead of

self.Bind(wx.EVT_KEY_DWN, Key)

Not tested, but it should work.
