A menu is a popup (or pull down) list of items, one of which may be selected before the menu goes away (clicking elsewhere dismisses the menu). Menus may be used to construct either menu bars or popup menus. A menu item has an integer ID associated with it which can be used to identify the selection, or to change the menu item in some way. A menu item with a special identifier -1 is a separator item and doesn't have an associated command but just makes a separator line appear in the menu. Menu items may be either normal items, check items or radio items. Normal items don't have any special properties while the check items have a boolean flag associated to them and they show a checkmark in the menu when the flag is set. wxWindows automatically toggles the flag value when the item is clicked and its value may be retrieved using either IsChecked method of wx.Menu or wx.MenuBar itself or by using wxEvent.IsChecked when you get the menu notification for the item in question. The radio items are similar to the check items except that all the other items in the same radio group are unchecked when a radio item is checked. The radio group is formed by a contiguous range of radio items, i.e. it starts at the first item of this kind and ends with the first item of a different kind (or the end of the menu). Notice that because the radio groups are defined in terms of the item positions inserting or removing the items in the menu containing the radio items risks to not work correctly. Finally note that the radio items are only supported under Windows and GTK+ currently. """ if __name__ == '__main__': import sys,os import run run.main(['', os.path.basename(sys.argv[0])])
