.. class:: GenStaticText(PyControl)



   .. method:: __init__(self, parent, ID=-1, label="", pos=DefaultPosition, size=DefaultSize, style=0, name="genstattext")


   .. method:: AcceptsFocus(self)

      Overridden base class virtual.


   .. method:: Disable(self)

      Overridden Disable() method to properly refresh the widget. 


   .. method:: DoGetBestSize(self)

      Overridden base class virtual.  Determines the best size of
      the control based on the label size and the current font.


   .. method:: Enable(self, enable=True)

      Overridden Enable() method to properly refresh the widget. 


   .. method:: GetDefaultAttributes(self)

      Overridden base class virtual.  By default we should use
      the same font/colour attributes as the native StaticText.


   .. method:: OnEraseBackground(self, event)


   .. method:: OnPaint(self, event)


   .. method:: SetFont(self, font)

      Sets the static text font and updates the control's size to exactly
      fit the label unless the control has wx.ST_NO_AUTORESIZE flag.


   .. method:: SetLabel(self, label)

      Sets the static text label and updates the control's size to exactly
      fit the label unless the control has wx.ST_NO_AUTORESIZE flag.


   .. method:: ShouldInheritColours(self)

      Overridden base class virtual.  If the parent has non-default
      colours then we want this control to inherit them.
