Bugs & Issues ------------- Under wxGTK, Num Lock *must* be turned off. Because of a strange bug in wxWidgets having Num Lock on is the same as holding in Alt. This causes the short cuts to trigger, e.g. pressing "S" in the Editor would cause the Save As dialog to pop up because Alt-S is registered. The only know solution for wxPython 2.4.2.4 is to turn off Num Lock. --- Current Designer behaviour may seem weird where a single control is dropped on a frame; At first the control keeps its default size, but when the frame is resized, it fills the frame. (toolbars, statusbars and menubars connected to the frame are excepted from this rule) This behaviour emulates the way frames/containers auto sizes a control if only one is dropped on a frame/container, but it gives you the chance to add a second control (before it fills the parent). If you have a control filling a parent and want to add another to the parent, resize/move it out of the way and drop the second (painful I know) White space is quite significant for collection item methods! The spacing/blank lines within the method delimit the 3 possible sections, I might change this to rather be delimited by comments (but I don't want to have meaningfull comments either :( ) Anyway don't mess with the whitespace and expect this to change. Another biggish gotcha is that changes to many (there are exceptions) constructor properties and collection item constructor properties will only take effect after the frame has been opened and closed or the property refreshed. This is partially due to constructors only being called once ;) Cyclops and wxGenButtons don't mix for some strange reason. Disable any wxGenButtons code before running Cyclops. To run Boa in Cyclops, turn the cyclopsing flag on in Palette.py Other bugs ---------- Recreate controls not implemented for the Data View. ToolBars confuse the Designer somtimes (and the author). Components are offset by the height of the toolbar Toolbars still cause big trouble by moving the frame coordinates down when linked to a frame. The only way I can see this working is by always having the toolbar as the first component and immediately linking it before creating any other components (this breaks the pattern completely ouch :() Also have to compensate for all top level controls (ctrls directly on frame) by adjusting their coordinates upon linking of the toolbar, because their source won't be updated. The moral of the story is to not have controls directly on a frame for now, rather put them in a panel, this is the recommended procedure in any case. Parser must be fixed sometime to correctly parse nested methods and nested classes Sometimes get a DeadObject assertion error when using the debugger by attaching to it. GTK --- Under RedHat 8, fonts are sometimes displayed incorrectly, the suggested workaround is to have an environment variable like this defined: LANG=en_US GTK Critical warnings are produced in the following cases: - When there is a 'New' submenu connected under 'File'. Off by default on wxGTK. - When controls are reparented from the Notebook to another control. - This now causes a coredump :( --- Find in App does not search app moduleparse.Module.name sometimes have extension, sometimes not. Decide! Remove the silly assert for local uris (assertLocalFile), should be checkLocalFile that raises a TransportError Check AccelEnter -> Notebook paste bug refreshCtrl is called twice on open pyd Snap to grid snaps more to left/top sides Filenames starting with . aren't handled correctly. moduleparse does not pick up 1st variable if defined before any other construct F10 outside Boa seems to set the dir according to app, breaks traceback. Clue; seems os.cwd is sometimes used. When an App is closed, it's remaining open modules stil refer to it. Inspector page splitter sometimes ends up in the center of the page after selecting nothing.
