ctrl

masked.Ctrl is actually a factory function for several types of masked edit controls:

masked.TextCtrl	standard masked edit text box
masked.ComboBox	adds combobox capabilities
masked.IpAddrCtrl	adds logical input semantics for IP address entry
masked.TimeCtrl	special subclass handling lots of time formats as values
masked.NumCtrl	special subclass handling numeric values

masked.Ctrl works by looking for a special controlType parameter in the variable arguments of the control, to determine what kind of instance to return. controlType can be one of:

controlTypes.TEXT
controlTypes.COMBO
controlTypes.IPADDR
controlTypes.TIME
controlTypes.NUMBER

These constants are also available individually, ie, you can use either of the following:

from wxPython.wx.lib.masked import Ctrl, COMBO, TEXT, NUMBER, TIME
from wxPython.wx.lib.masked import Ctrl, controlTypes

If not specified as a keyword argument, the default controlType is controlTypes.TEXT.

Each of the above classes has its own unique arguments, but Masked.Ctrl provides a single “unified” interface for masked controls.
