"""This is the Advanced Generic Widgets package (AGW).
It provides many custom-drawn wxPython controls:
some of them can be used as a replacement of the platform native controls,
others are simply an addition to the already rich wxPython widgets set.
Description:
AGW contains many different modules, listed below.
Items labelled with an asterisk were already present in :mod:`lib` before:
- AdvancedSplash: reproduces the behaviour of :class:`~adv.SplashScreen`,
with more advanced features like custom shapes and text animations;
- AquaButton: this is another custom-drawn button class which *approximately* mimics the
behaviour of Aqua buttons on the Mac;
- AUI: a pure-Python implementation of :mod:`~wx.lib.agw.aui`,
with many bug fixes and new features like HUD docking and
:class:`~wx.lib.agw.aui.auibookAuiNotebook` tab arts;
- BalloonTip: allows you to display tooltips in a balloon style window
(actually a frame), similarly to the Windows XP balloon help;
- ButtonPanel (*): a panel with gradient background shading with the possibility to add
buttons and controls still respecting the gradient background;
- CubeColourDialog: an alternative implementation of :class:`wx.ColourDialog`,
it offers different functionalities like colour wheel and RGB cube;
- CustomTreeCtrl (*): mimics the behaviour of :class:`TreeCtrl`,
with almost the same base functionalities plus a bunch of enhancements and goodies;
- FlatMenu: as the name implies, it is a generic menu implementation,
offering the same :class:`wx.MenuBar` / :class:`wx.Menu` / :class:`ToolBar`
capabilities and much more;
- FlatNotebook (*): a full implementation of the :class:`Notebook`, and designed to be a
drop-in replacement for :class:`Notebook` with enhanced capabilities;
- FloatSpin: this class implements a floating point spinctrl,
cabable (in theory) of handling infinite-precision floating point numbers;
- FoldPanelBar (*): a control that contains multiple panels that can be expanded or
collapsed a la Windows Explorer/Outlook command bars;
- FourWaySplitter: this is a layout manager which manages four children like four panes
in a window, similar to many CAD software interfaces;
- GenericMessageDialog: it is a possible replacement for the standard
:class:`MessageDialog`, with a fancier look and extended functionalities;
- GradientButton: another custom-drawn button class which mimics Windows CE mobile
gradient buttons, using a tri-vertex blended gradient background;
- HyperLinkCtrl (*): this widget acts line an hyper link in a typical browser;
- HyperTreeList: a class that mimics the behaviour of :class:`wx.adv.TreeListCtrl`,
with almost the same base functionalities plus some more enhancements;
- InfoBar: a transient window shown at top or bottom of its parent window to display
non-critical information to the user;
- KnobCtrl: a widget which lets the user select a numerical value by rotating it,
like a slider with a wheel shape;
- LabelBook and FlatImageBook: these are a quasi-full implementations of
:class:`Listbook`, with additional features;
- MultiDirDialog: it represents a possible replacement for :class:`DirDialog`,
with the additional ability of selecting multiple folders at once and a fancier look;
- PeakMeter: this widget mimics the behaviour of LED equalizers that are usually found
in stereos and MP3 players;
- PersistentControls: widgets which automatically save their state when they are
destroyed and restore it when they are recreated,
even during another program invocation;
- PieCtrl and ProgressPie: these are simple classes that reproduce the behavior of a pie
chart, in a static or progress-gauge-like way;
- PyBusyInfo: constructs a busy info window and displays a message in it:
it is similar to :class:`BusyInfo`;
- PyCollapsiblePane: a pure Python implementation of the original wxWidgets C++ code of
:class:`CollapsiblePane`, with customizable buttons;
- PyGauge: a generic :class:`Gauge` implementation,
it supports the determinate mode functions as :class:`Gauge`;
- PyProgress: it is similar to :class:`ProgressDialog` in indeterminated mode,
but with a different gauge appearance and a different spinning behavior;
- RibbonBar: the RibbonBar library is a set of classes for writing a ribbon user
interface,
similar to the user interface present in recent versions of Microsoft Office;
- RulerCtrl: it implements a ruler window that can be placed on top, bottom,
left or right to any wxPython widget.
It is somewhat similar to the rulers you can find in text editors software;
- ShapedButton: this class tries to fill the lack of "custom shaped" controls in
wxPython. It can be used to build round buttons or elliptic buttons;
- ShortcutEditor: a widget that allows the user to customize and change keyboard
shortcuts via a dialog;
- SpeedMeter: this widget tries to reproduce the behavior of some car controls
(but not only), by creating an "angular" control;
- SuperToolTip: a class that mimics the behaviour of :class:`TipWindow` and generic
tooltips, with many features and highly customizable;
- ThumbnailCtrl: a widget that can be used to display a series of images in a
"thumbnail" format; it mimics, for example,
the Windows Explorer behavior when you select the "view thumbnails" option;
- ToasterBox: a cross-platform widget to make the creation of MSN-style "toaster" popups
easier;
- UltimateListCtrl: mimics the behaviour of :class:`ListCtrl`,
with almost the same base functionalities plus some more enhancements;
- XLSGrid: a class based on :class:`grid.Grid` that can be used to faithfully reproduce
the appearance of a Microsoft Excel spreadsheets;
- ZoomBar: a class that *appoximatively* mimics the behaviour of the Mac Dock,
inside a :class:`Panel`.
Bugs and Limitations: many, patches and fixes welcome :-D
See the demos for an example of what AGW can do, and on how to use it.
