Event Handling

Event Name Description
wx.EVT_COMMAND(id, event, func) Process a command, supplying the window identifier, command event identifier, and member function.
wx.EVT_COMMAND_RANGE(id1, id2, event, func) Process a command for a range of window identifiers, supplying the minimum and maximum window identifiers, command event identifier, and member function.

Class API

Methods

__init__(commandType=wx.wxEVT_NULL, winid=0)

This event class contains information about command events, which originate from a variety of simple controls, as well as menus and toolbars.

Parameters:

  • commandType (eventtype)
  • winid (int)

Returns:

wx.CommandEvent


Checked()

Deprecated, use IsChecked instead.


Returns:

bool

Warning

This method is deprecated.


GetClientData()

Returns client data pointer for a listbox or choice selection event (not valid for a deselection).


Returns:

int


GetClientObject()

Returns client object pointer for a listbox or choice selection event (not valid for a deselection).


Returns:

PyObject


GetExtraLong()

Returns extra information dependant on the event objects type.

If the event comes from a listbox selection, it is a boolean determining whether the event was a selection (True) or a deselection (False). A listbox deselection only occurs for multiple-selection boxes, and in this case the index and string values are indeterminate and the listbox must be examined by the application.


Returns:

long


GetInt()

Returns the integer identifier corresponding to a listbox, choice or radiobox selection (only if the event was a selection, not a deselection), or a boolean value representing the value of a checkbox.


Returns:

int


GetSelection()

Returns item index for a listbox or choice selection event (not valid for a deselection).


Returns:

int


GetString()

Returns item string for a listbox or choice selection event (not valid for a deselection).


Returns:

string


IsChecked()

This method can be used with checkbox and menu events: for the checkboxes, the method returns True for a selection event and False for a deselection one. For the menu events, this method indicates if the menu item just has become checked or unchecked (and thus only makes sense for checkable menu items).


Returns:

bool


IsSelection()

For a listbox or similar event, returns True if it is a selection, False if it is a deselection.


Returns:

bool


SetClientData(clientData)

Sets the client data for this event.

Parameters:

  • clientData (int)

SetClientObject(clientObject)

Sets the client object for this event. The client object is not owned by the event object and the event object will not delete the client object in its destructor. The client object must be owned and deleted by another object (e.g. a control) that has longer life time than the event object.

Parameters:

  • clientObject (PyObject)

SetExtraLong(extraLong)

Sets the m_extraLong member.

Parameters:

  • extraLong (long)

SetInt(intCommand)

Sets the m_commandInt member.

Parameters:

  • intCommand (int)

SetString(string)

Sets the m_commandString member.

Parameters:

  • string (string)
