Re: associating a slider with a label

Hi Dietmar,

Sorry about that:

Python version: 3.8.6 32 BIT

WX Version: '4.1.0 msw (phoenix) wxWidgets 3.1.4'

Windows: 10, 64 BIT


You mention drawing the labels yourself, how would I go about starting 
that. Is that with a WX.Rectangle and then doing some fancy footwork to 
capture when the slider has focus and then forcing the reader to speak?

If it helps here is the code I use to make a list box which seems to 
work fine:


   labell = wx.StaticText(panel, -1, "Time notification settings.")
   hbox1.Add(labell, 0, wx.EXPAND|wx.ALIGN_LEFT|wx.ALL,5)
   self.notes = wx.ListCtrl(panel, -1, style = wx.LC_REPORT)
   hbox1.Add(self.notes, 1, wx.EXPAND|wx.ALIGN_LEFT|wx.ALL,5)
   self.notes.InsertColumn(0, "Time Notification settings.")
   c=['Never.', 'Hourly.', 'Every 15 minutes.', 'Every 30 minutes.', 
'Only on the 45th minute.']
   for x in range(len(c)):
    self.notes.InsertItem(x, c[x])
   self.notes.Focus(c.index(g.bong))
   self.notes.Select(c.index(g.bong))
   self.notes.Bind(wx.EVT_LIST_ITEM_SELECTED, self.changenote)
   self.notes.SetName("Time Notification setting.")


Thanks in advance,
Nathan
