Any suggestions how do I achieve this?
Suggestion #1: After you set the label to "Installing...", try adding self.run_button.Refresh() and/or self.run_button.Update(). Suggestion #2: Ask wxPython questions on the wxPython mailing list. Good luck Philip -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
