Toolbar background color

[Søren Nielsen]

Hi,

I've created a toolbar in my program, but it has a lightgray background.. which is not the same as the  GetThemeBackgroundColour() .. which I would like it to be.. I've been trying to find the command for changing the background colour of a Toolbar.. without luck..

Does anyone know how to do this?

Best,
Soren

For various introspection reasons, I need to be able to ask a
wx.TextCtrl for the value previously set in
wx.TextCtrl.SetMaxLength(). Is there any mechanism available to do
this?

I don't understand why wxWigets provides a setter for maximum length,
but not a getter.

Sorry, there was a mishap.

I don't understand it either, but it is like the rain: don't protest in vain, and open your umbrella.
In the actual case, I suggest you subclass wx.TextCtrl, override the method SetMaxLength() as follows:
       def SetMaxlength(self, length):
               assert length >= 0
               self.MaxLength = length
               wx.TextCtrl.SetMaxLength(self, length)

and then you build your getter:
      def GetMaxLength(self):
               return self.MaxLength

Platform and version?

I'm using win XP and wxpython 2.7.1

toolbar.SetBackgroundColour(newColour)

After some searching I found that method.. but I need the default system colour (the default toolbar gray in windows), is there a way to obtain this?
