NAME
wxControl - Functions for wxControl class
DESCRIPTION
This is the base class for a control or "widget".
A control is generally a small window which processes user input and/or
displays one or more item of data.
See: wxValidator (not implemented in wx)
This class is derived (and can use functions) from: wxWindow
wxEvtHandler
wxWidgets docs: wxControl
EVENTS
Event types emitted from this class: command_text_copy, com-
mand_text_cut, command_text_paste
DATA TYPES
wxControl() = wx:wx_object()
EXPORTS
getLabel(This) -> unicode:charlist()
Types:
This = wxControl()
Returns the control's label, as it was passed to setLabel/2.
Note that the returned string may contains mnemonics ("&" char-
acters) if they were passed to the setLabel/2 function; use Get-
LabelText() (not implemented in wx) if they are undesired.
Also note that the returned string is always the string which
was passed to setLabel/2 but may be different from the string
passed to SetLabelText() (not implemented in wx) (since this
last one escapes mnemonic characters).
setLabel(This, Label) -> ok
Types:
This = wxControl()
Label = unicode:chardata()
Sets the control's label.
All "&" characters in the label are special and indicate that
the following character is a mnemonic for this control and can
be used to activate it from the keyboard (typically by using Alt
key in combination with it). To insert a literal ampersand char-
acter, you need to double it, i.e. use "&&". If this behaviour
is undesirable, use SetLabelText() (not implemented in wx)
instead.
