Boa was confusing, I admit, but it was the first one I tried while it was
actively developed. I also discovered wxGlade around the same time, but
have not had a

My mistake, I misunderstood what you meant by a screen reader. At the risk
of sounding insensitive, why would you alter the output format of the code
for users to accommodate screen readers? I don't have enough experience to
appreciate why the structured output that v0.9.5 and earlier versions
created is not desirable. Maybe both output styles can be accommodated with
a checkbox in the preferences dialog.

Is that the appropriate place to put the code? It ends up outside of the
class definition. I will give it a try.

Another matter. I have tried to run the AllWidgets_30 example. The output
code does not run from 'idle'. I get the following error output

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\wxGlade-master\examples\AllWidgets\AllWidgets_30.py", line 616,

    self.All_Widgets = All_Widgets_Frame(None, wx.ID_ANY, "")

    self.datepicker_ctrl_1 =

wx._core.wxAssertionError: C++ assertion "strcmp(setlocale(LC_ALL, NULL),
"C") == 0" failed at ..\..\src\common\intl.cpp(1579) in
wxLocale::GetInfo(): You probably called setlocale() directly instead of
using wxLocale and now there is a mismatch between C/C++ and Windows locale.
Things are going to break, please only change locale by creating wxLocale
objects to avoid this!

Any ideas?
