Hello Kris, I think the specialists are in the wxPython-mailing list ;) http://www.wxpython.org/maillist.php >Basically, my app is a wx.tree object with items.

You mean a wx.TreeCtrl? I don't understand exactly what you mean with "properties". Do you have a sample program?

Is the properties window a wx.Dialog? If you show it with ShowModal(), then you must finish with it, before you can select another tree node. >I hope this makes some sense. > >Any help much appreciated. > >Kris > >Ps.: any refs to good OO/Python GUI books are also welcome (or URLs) There is a wxPython book in process, and it is publication is estimated around end of this year. -- Franz Steinhaeusler -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
