Thanks! On a related topic, it seems like it would be nice to do *all* drawing in response to paint events. When I get an event from the timer, I would just tell wx that part of the window needs redrawing, and depend on it to give me a paint even when nothing of higher priority needs to be done. I've seen this kind of logic recommended in other GUI tookits. Is it a good idea in wxPython, and, if so, how does one do it? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
