|phoenix_title| **wx.Caret**
==========================================================================================================================================
A caret is a blinking cursor showing the position where the typed text will appear.
Text controls usually have their own caret but :ref:`wx.Caret` provides a way to use a caret in other windows.
Currently, the caret appears as a rectangle of the given size. In the future, it will be possible to specify a bitmap to be used for the caret shape.
A caret is always associated with a window and the current caret can be retrieved using :meth:`wx.Window.GetCaret` . The same caret can't be reused in two different windows.

|method_summary| Methods Summary
================================
================================================================================ ================================================================================
:meth:`~wx.Caret.__init__` Creates a caret with the given size (in pixels) and associates it with the `window`.
:meth:`~wx.Caret.Create` Creates a caret with the given size (in pixels) and associates it with the `window` (same as the equivalent constructors).
:meth:`~wx.Caret.GetBlinkTime` Returns the blink time which is measured in milliseconds and is the time elapsed between 2 inversions of the caret (blink time of the caret is the same for all carets, so this functions is static).
:meth:`~wx.Caret.GetPosition` Get the caret position (in pixels).
:meth:`~wx.Caret.GetSize` Get the caret size.
:meth:`~wx.Caret.GetWindow` Get the window the caret is associated with.
:meth:`~wx.Caret.Hide` Hides the caret, same as Show(false).
:meth:`~wx.Caret.IsOk` Returns ``True`` if the caret was created successfully.
:meth:`~wx.Caret.IsVisible` Returns ``True`` if the caret is visible and ``False`` if it is permanently hidden (if it is blinking and not shown currently but will be after the next blink, this method still returns ``True``).
:meth:`~wx.Caret.Move` Move the caret to given position (in logical coordinates).
:meth:`~wx.Caret.SetBlinkTime` Sets the blink time for all the carets.
:meth:`~wx.Caret.SetSize` Changes the size of the caret.
:meth:`~wx.Caret.Show` Shows or hides the caret.
:meth:`~wx.Caret.__bool__`
:meth:`~wx.Caret.__nonzero__`
