You could always create your own derivative of wx.Dialog and using a sizer, add in the widgets you require.
Here's one from my program, for example:
class ProgressDialog(wx.Dialog):
"""
Shows a Progres Gauge while an operation is taking place. May be cancellable
which is possible when converting pdf/ps
"""
def __init__(self, gui, title, to_add=1, cancellable=False):
"""Defines a gauge and a timer which updates the gauge."""
wx.Dialog.__init__(self, gui, title=title,
style=wx.CAPTION)
self.gui = gui
self.count = 0
self.to_add = to_add
self.timer = wx.Timer(self)
self.gauge = wx.Gauge(self, range=100, size=(180, 30))
sizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx.VERTICAL)
sizer.Add(self.gauge, 0, wx.ALL, 10)
if cancellable:
cancel = wx.Button(self, wx.ID_CANCEL, _("&Cancel"))
cancel.SetDefault()
cancel.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.on_cancel)
btnSizer = wx.StdDialogButtonSizer()
btnSizer.AddButton(cancel)
btnSizer.Realize()
sizer.Add(btnSizer, 0, wx.ALIGN_CENTER | wx.TOP | wx.BOTTOM, 10)
self.SetSizer(sizer)
sizer.Fit(self)
self.SetFocus()
self.Bind(wx.EVT_TIMER, self.on_timer, self.timer)
self.timer.Start(30)
def on_timer(self, event):
"""Increases the gauge's progress."""
self.count += self.to_add
self.gauge.SetValue(self.count)
if self.count > 100:
self.count = 0
def on_cancel(self, event):
"""Cancels the conversion process"""
# do whatever
