That's debatable. While I doubt the author of the widgets on this site is constantly working on them, if you have a problem, he is very responsive and has been known to fix them within hours of the bug report: http://xoomer.alice.it/infinity77/main/freeware.html The Float Canvas widget is also actively maintained by its author. These are just a few examples. > > For instance, is there a calendar in wxPython that has this look and > feel, and is under active > development?http://www.devexpress.com/Products/VCL/ExScheduler/ I don't know. You should ask on the wxPython user's list: http://www.wxpython.org/maillist.php I have personally written a reminder application that has that same pop-up window though. The grid in the photo that show the months on the left and letters on the top would be trivial to create. I don't know how to overlay the grid with other widgets, but I suspect it would only require doing something in a paint event or embedding some additional widgets in it. > > >The grid can be quite advanced.

You'll have to ask about the other features on their list. I haven't done that as of yet. Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
