The following code shows how we can Bind a
wx.EVT_KEY_UP KeyEvent with a
TextCtrl widget:
import wx
class MyForm(wx.Frame):
def __init__(self):
wx.Frame.__init__(self, None, wx.ID_ANY, "Show Caret Position", size=(400, 140))
panel = wx.Panel(self, wx.ID_ANY)
sizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx.VERTICAL)
text = wx.StaticText(panel, -1, "Text:", (10, 22))
self.textCtrl = wx.TextCtrl(
panel,
-1, "",
(50,5),
size=(250, 50),
style=wx.TE_MULTILINE
)
self.textCtrl.SetInsertionPoint(0)
self.textCtrl.Bind(wx.EVT_KEY_UP,self.onTextKeyEvent)
self.statusbar = self.CreateStatusBar(1)
panel.SetSizerAndFit(sizer, wx.VERTICAL)
def onTextKeyEvent(self, event):
statusText = "Caret Position: "+str(self.textCtrl.GetInsertionPoint())
self.SetStatusText(statusText,0)
event.Skip()
#Run application
if __name__ == "__main__":
app = wx.PySimpleApp()
frame = MyForm()
frame.Show()
app.MainLoop()
