Hi all. I'm having a bit of trouble implementing the basics of a multi panel GUI. Basically I need a GUI that will act as an in-dash display for a car. The home screen will offer the user the ability to chose a selection of buttons. For example, the 'settings' button should lead to a new screen where the user can change settings, etc.
What would be the best way to implement this? I was think about using a notebook, but I would need to hide the tabs, not sure how to do this. Then I thought about using panels and clicking a button will launch a new panel, etc. Here's the code that I was working on for the multi panel approach (doesn't work by the way, anyone know how I can solve the error "AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'loadNewPanel'"?):
import wx
class PanelOne(wx.Panel):
def __init__(self, parent):
wx.Panel.__init__(self, parent, -1)
self.parent = parent.GetParent()
wx.StaticText(self, -1, "PANEL 1", (10,10))
self.switch=wx.Button(self, label="SWITCH", pos=(5,40), size=(60,30))
self.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.OnButton, self.switch)
def OnButton(self, event):
self.parent.loadNewPanel(self)
class PanelTwo(wx.Panel):
def __init__(self, parent):
wx.Panel.__init__(self, parent, -1)
wx.StaticText(self, -1, "PANEL 2", (10,10))
self.switch=wx.Button(self, label="SWITCH", pos=(5,40), size=(60,30))
self.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.OnButton, self.switch)
def OnButton(self, event):
self.parent.loadNewPanel(self)
class myframe(wx.Frame):
def __init__(self, parent, id):
wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent, id, 'Frame', size=(600,320))
panel=PanelOne(self)
def loadNewPanel(self, invoker):
if isinstance(invoker, PanelOne):
self.panel = PanelTwo(self)
else:
self.panel = PanelOne(self)
# Main handling
if __name__=='__main__':
app=wx.PySimpleApp()
frame=myframe(parent=None,id=-1)
frame.Show()
app.MainLoop()Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
