window. (str)
			

When True, Mouse Enter events fire the onHover method, and
MouseLeave events fire the endHover method  (bool)

Specifies the left position of the object. (int)

Specifies which events to log.  (list of strings)

If the first element is 'All', all events except the following listed events
will be logged.
Event logging is resource-intensive, so in addition to setting this LogEvents
property, you also need to make the following call:

	>>> dabo.eventLogging = True

Maximum allowable height for the control in pixels.  (int)

Maximum allowable size for the control in pixels.  (2-tuple of int)

Maximum allowable width for the control in pixels.  (int)

Specifies the shape of the mouse pointer when it enters this window. (obj)

Specifies the name of the object, which must be unique among siblings.

If the specified name isn't unique, an exception will be raised. See also
NameBase, which let's you set a base name and Dabo will automatically append
integers to make it unique.

Specifies the base name of the object.

The base name specified will become the object's Name, unless another sibling
already has that name, in which case Dabo will find the next unique name by
adding integers to the end of the base name. For example, if your code says:

	self.NameBase = "txtAddress"

and there is already a sibling object with that name, your object will end up
with Name = "txtAddress1".

This property is write-only at runtime.

Specifies the class of control to use for pages by default. (classRef)
This really only applies when using the PageCount property to set the
number of pages. If you instead use AddPage() you still need to send
an instance as usual. Class must descend from a dabo base class.

Specifies the number of pages in the pageframe. (int)
When using this to increase the number of pages, PageClass
will be queried as the object to use as the page object.

this to None to prevent sizers from being automatically added to child
pages. (dSizer or None)

Returns a list of the contained pages.  (list)

The containing object. (obj)

The (x,y) position of the object. (tuple)

Reference to the Preference Management object  (dPref)

The position of the right side of the object. This is a
convenience property, and is equivalent to setting the Left property
to this value minus the Width of the control.  (int)

References the current frontmost page.  (dPage)

Returns the index of the current frontmost page.  (int)

The size of the object. (tuple)

The sizer for the object.

Specifies the text that displays in the form's status bar, if any.

The text will appear when the control gets the focus, or when the

the focus, or when the mouse is no longer hovering.

For forms, set StatusText whenever you want to display a message.

Specifies where the page tabs are located. (int)
Top (default)
Left
Right
Bottom

Specifies whether this control can receive focus from keyboard navigation.

A property that user code can safely use for specific purposes.

Time in seconds to change transparency. Set it to zero to see instant changes.
Default=0.25 (float)

Determines if the inactive pages are updated too. (bool)
Setting it to False can significantly improve update performance
of multipage forms. Default=True.

Determines if focus has to be restored to the last active
control on page when it become selected. (bool) Default=False.

Specifies whether the object is visible at runtime.  (bool)

Specifies whether the object is physically visible at runtime.  (bool)

The Visible property could return True even if the object isn't actually
shown on screen, due to a parent object or sizer being invisible.

The VisibleOnScreen property will return True only if the object and all
parents are visible.

The width of the object. (int)

The platform-specific handle for the window. Read-only. (long)

Occurs when the control or form is destroyed.

Occurs when the properties of a dFont have changed.

will only run when the application is otherwise not busy doing other (more
important) things.

Occurs when a key is depressed and released on the
focused control or form.

Occurs when any key is depressed on the focused control or form.

Occurs when any key is released on the focused control or form.

Occurs when a container wants its controls to update
their properties.

Translates a position value for a control to absolute screen position.

Adds the passed image to the control's ImageList, and maintains
a reference to it that is retrievable via the key value.

Instantiate object as a child of self.

The classRef argument must be a Dabo UI class definition. (it must inherit
dPemMixin). Alternatively, it can be a saved class definition in XML format,
as created by the Class Designer.

The name argument, if passed, will be sent along to the object's
constructor, which will attempt to set its Name accordingly. If the name
argument is not passed (or None), the object will get a default Name as
defined in the object's class definition.

Additional positional and/or keyword arguments will be sent along to the
object's constructor.

Subclass hook. Called after the object's __init__ has run fully.
Subclasses should place their __init__ code here in this hook, instead of
overriding __init__ directly, to avoid conflicting with base Dabo behavior.

Appends the page to the pageframe, and optionally sets
the page caption and image. The image should have already
been added to the pageframe if it is going to be set here.

Any kwargs sent will be passed on to the constructor of the
page class.

Automatically bind any on*() methods to the associated event.

User code only needs to define the callback, and Dabo will automatically
set up the event binding. This will satisfy lots of common cases where
you want an object or its parent to respond to the object's events.

To use this feature, just define a method on<EventName>(), or	if you
want a parent container to respond to the event, make a method in the
parent on<EventName>_<object Name or RegID>().

For example::
	
	class MyButton(dabo.ui.dButton):
		def onHit(self, evt):
			print "Hit!"

	class MyPanel(dabo.ui.dPanel):
		def afterInit(self):
			self.addObject(MyButton, RegID="btn1")

		def onHit_btn1(self, evt):
			print "panel: button hit!"

When the button is pressed, you'll see both 'hit' messages because of
auto event binding.

If you want to bind your events explicitly, you can turn off auto event
binding by calling::

	 dabo.autoBindEvents = False

This feature is inspired by PythonCard.

Subclass hook. Called before the object is fully instantiated.
Usually, user code should override afterInit() instead, but there may be
cases where you need to set an attribute before the init stage is fully
underway.

Return False from this method to prevent the page from changing.

Bind a dEvent to a callback function.

Bind a sequence of [dEvent, callback] lists.

Bind a key combination such as "ctrl+c" to a callback function.

See dKeys.keyStrings for the valid string key codes.
See dKeys.modifierStrings for the valid modifier codes.

Examples::

	# When user presses <esc>, close the form:
	form.bindKey("esc", form.Close)

	# When user presses <ctrl><alt><w>, close the form:
	form.bindKey("ctrl+alt+w", form.Close)

Makes this object topmost

Clears the background of custom-drawn objects.

Create another object just like the passed object. It assumes that the
calling object will be the container of the newly created object.

Given a position relative to this control, return a position relative
to the specified container. If no position is passed, returns the position
of this control relative to the container.

Called by uiApp when the user requests a copy operation.

Return None (the default) and uiApp will try a default copy operation.
Return anything other than None and uiApp will assume that the copy
operation has been handled.

Called by uiApp when the user requests a cut operation.

Return None (the default) and uiApp will try a default cut operation.
Return anything other than None and uiApp will assume that the cut
operation has been handled.

Moves through the pages by the specified amount, wrapping
around the ends. Negative values move to previous pages; positive
move through the next pages.

Draws an arc (pie slice) of a circle centered around the specified point,
starting from 'startAngle' degrees, and sweeping counter-clockwise
until 'endAngle' is reached.

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Draws a bitmap on the object at the specified position.

Draws a circle of the specified radius around the specified point.

You can set the color and thickness of the line, as well as the
color and hatching style of the fill. Normally, when persist=True,
the circle will be re-drawn on paint events, but if you pass False,
it will be drawn once only.

A drawing object is returned, or None if persist=False. You can
'remove' the drawing by setting the Visible property of the
returned object to False. You can also manipulate the position, size,
color, and fill by changing the various properties of the object.

Draws an ellipse contained within the rectangular space defined by
the position and size coordinates

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Draws an arc (pie slice) of a ellipse contained by the specified
dimensions, starting from 'startAngle' degrees, and sweeping
counter-clockwise until 'endAngle' is reached.

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Draws a horizontal or vertical gradient on the control. Default
is to cover the entire control, although you can specify positions.
The gradient is drawn with 'color1' as the top/left color, and 'color2'
as the bottom/right color.

Draws a line between (x1,y1) and (x2, y2).

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Draws a series of connected line segments defined by the specified points.

The 'points' parameter should be a tuple of (x,y) pairs defining the shape. Lines
are drawn connecting the points sequentially, but a segment from the last
point to the first is not drawn, leaving an 'open' polygon. As a result, there is no
FillColor or HatchStyle defined for this.

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Draws a polygon defined by the specified points.

The 'points' parameter should be a tuple of (x,y) pairs defining the
polygon.

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Draws a rectangle of the specified size beginning at the specified
point.

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Zoom in on the font, by setting a higher point size.

Reset the font zoom back to zero.

Zoom out on the font, by setting a lower point size.

Given a position relative to this control, return a position relative
to the containing form. If no position is passed, returns the position
of this control relative to the form.

Return the fully qualified name of the object.

Return a bitmap snapshot of self as it appears in the UI at this moment.

Returns an object that locks the current display when created, and
unlocks it when destroyed. This is generally safer than calling lockDisplay()
and unlockDisplay(), especially when used with callAfterInterval(), when
the unlockDisplay() calls may not all happen.

Returns the current mouse position on the entire screen
relative to this object.

Returns the index of the specified page's image in the
current image list, or -1 if no image is set for the page.

Convenience method to let you call this directly on the object.

Returns a dictionary of property name/value pairs.

If a sequence of properties is passed, just those property values
will be returned. Otherwise, all property values will be returned.
The sequence of properties can be a list, tuple, or plain string
positional arguments. For instance, all of the following are
equivilent::

	print self.getProperties("Caption", "FontInfo", "Form")
	print self.getProperties(["Caption", "FontInfo", "Form"])
	t = ("Caption", "FontInfo", "Form")
	print self.getProperties(t)
	print self.getProperties(\*t)

An exception will be raised if any passed property names don't
exist, aren't actual properties, or are not readable (do not have
getter functions).

However, if an exception is raised from the property getter function,
the exception will get caught and used as the property value in the
returned property dictionary. This allows the property list to be
returned even if some properties can't be evaluated correctly by the
object yet.

Gets the current setting for the given property from the object's
ControllingSizer. Returns None if object is not in a sizer.

Returns a dict containing the object's sizer property info. The
keys are the property names, and the values are the current
values for those props.

Make the object invisible.

Hook for subclasses. User code should do custom event binding
here, such as::
	
	self.bindEvent(dEvents.GotFocus, self.customGotFocusHandler)
	

Hook for subclasses. User subclasses should set properties
here, such as::
	
	self.Name = "MyTextBox"
	self.BackColor = (192,192,192)
	

Insert the page into the pageframe at the specified position,
and optionally sets the page caption and image. The image
should have already been added to the pageframe if it is
going to be set here.

Any kwargs sent will be passed on to the constructor of the
page class.

Returns True if the containership hierarchy for this control
includes the passed object reference.

Call the given function on this object and all of its Children. If
any object does not have the given function, no error is raised; it
is simply ignored.

Wrap the wx version of the call, if possible.

Locks the visual updates to the control.

This can significantly improve performance when many items are being
updated at once.

IMPORTANT: you must call unlockDisplay() when you are done, or your
object will never draw. unlockDisplay() must be called once for every
time lockDisplay() is called in order to resume repainting of the
control. Alternatively, you can call lockDisplay() many times, and
then call unlockDisplayAll() once when you are done.

Note that lockDisplay currently doesn't do anything on GTK.

Moves the specified 'old' page to the new position and
optionally selects it. If an invalid page number is passed,
it returns False without changing anything.

Moves this object's tab order after the passed obj.

Moves this object's tab order before the passed obj.

Given a position relative to the form, return a position relative
to this object. If no position is passed, returns the position
of this control relative to the form.

Called by uiApp when the user requests a paste operation.

Return None (the default) and uiApp will try a default paste operation.
Return anything other than None and uiApp will assume that the paste
operation has been handled.

Handler for files dropped on the control. Override in your
subclass/instance for your needs .

Handler for text dropped on the control. Override in your
subclass/instance for your needs .

Raise the passed Dabo event.

Abstract method: subclasses MUST override for UI-specifics.

Recreate the object.

Warning: this is experimental and is known to cause hair loss.

Called when the object is (re)drawn.

This is a user subclass hook, where you should put any drawing routines
to affect the object appearance.

Repaints this control and all contained objects.

Translates an absolute screen position to position value for a control.

Destroys the object.

Removes the specified page. You can specify a page by either
passing the page itself, or a position. If delPage is True (default),
the page is released, and None is returned. If delPage is
False, the page is returned.

Places this object behind all others.

Set all child object properties to the passed value.

No bad effects will happen if the property doesn't apply to a child - only
children with the property will have their property updated.

If 'recurse' is True, setAll() will be called on each child as well.

If 'filt' is not empty, only children that match the expression in 'filt'
will be affected. The expression will be evaluated assuming the child
object is prefixed to the expression. For example, if you want to only
affect objects that are instances of dButton, you'd call::

	form.setAll("FontBold", True, filt="BaseClass == dabo.ui.dButton")

If the instancesOf sequence is passed, the property will only be set if
the child object is an instance of one of the passed classes.

Sets focus to the object.

Sets the specified page's image to the image corresponding
to the specified key. May also optionally pass the index of the
image in the ImageList rather than the key.

Convenience method to let you call this directly on the object.

Sets a group of properties on the object all at once.

You have the following options for sending the properties:
	
	1) Property/Value pair dictionary
	2) Keyword arguments
	3) Both

The following examples all do the same thing::

	self.setProperties(FontBold=True, ForeColor="Red")
	self.setProperties({"FontBold": True, "ForeColor": "Red"})
	self.setProperties({"FontBold": True}, ForeColor="Red")

Sets a group of properties on the object all at once. This
is different from the regular setProperties() method because
it only accepts a dict containing prop:value pairs, and it
assumes that the value is always a string. It will convert
the value to the correct type for the property, and then set
the property to that converted value. If the value needs to be evaluated
in a specific namespace, pass that as the 'context' parameter.

Tells the object's ControllingSizer to adjust the requested property.

Convenience method for setting multiple sizer item properties at once. The
dict should have the property name as the key and the desired new value
as the associated value.

Make the object visible.

If this object is inside of any paged control, it will force all containing
paged controls to switch to the page that contains this object.

Display a context menu (popup) at the specified position.

If no position is specified, the menu will be displayed at the current
mouse position.

If release is True (the default), the menu will be released after the user
has dismissed it.

Remove a previously registered event binding.

Removes all registrations that exist for the given binding for this
object. If event is None, all bindings for the passed function are
removed. If function is None, all bindings for the passed event are
removed. If both event and function are None, all event bindings are
removed.

Unbind a previously bound key combination.

Fail silently if the key combination didn't exist already.

Unlocks the visual updates to the control.

Use in conjunction with lockDisplay(), when you are doing lots of things
that would result in lengthy screen updates.

Since lockDisplay() may be called several times on an object, calling
unlockDisplay() will "undo" one locking call. When all locks have been
removed, repainting of the display will resume.

Immediately unlocks the display, no matter how many previous
lockDisplay calls have been made. Useful in a callAfterInterval()
construction to avoid flicker.

Update the properties of this object and all contained objects.
