Hi everyone! I'm looking for a way to implement this design in wxPython on Linux...
I have a toolbar with a button, when the button is pressed a popup should appear, mimicking an extension of the toolbar (like a menu), and this popup should show two columns of radio buttons (say 2x5) and a text box...
My main problem is that the toolbar is small in height, so the popup has to overflow the bounds of the window/client area..
I thought of two possible implementations:
- by using a wxMenu, since a menu can be drawn outside the client area. I fear that the layout possibilities aren't flexible enough for my goal
- by using a shaped frame. Pressing the button would re-shape the frame and draw the needed widgets as requested.
My question is: am I missing something / wrong on something? :) Is this doable at all?
