Installation not working

[Hon. Toy Peters]

Dear all,

Though am not new to Python but new to wxpython, and i need someones assistance in getting wxpython work.
I downloaded "wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.10.1-py26" from wxpython.org and after installing it,without changing the directory I still can not find my wxpython work

Actually i was expecting a ready GUI for wxpython like PyScripter or any IDE where I can drag and drop elements(button,panel,frame e.t.c) and also write code but I could not find any of such. I then get a tutorial online that instruct me that I should use "IDLE (Python GUI)" and firstly import wx.
After typing "import wx" and try to run my code an error "no module name called wx" prompts up and i cant go further learing using wxpython.

On this note, I have been on this for 3 days and night and no positve result, I need anybody with the best assistance to reply me urgently because I like to use python even for my GUI...

Expecting a reply..

Hi,

If you're on Windows 7, then this issue could be the culprit:

Which Windows are you on? Were there any errors when you installed wxPython? Maybe you need to re-download it, uninstall the one you have and reinstall?

By the way, wxPython doesn't come with a GUI for building a GUI. You can try Boa Constructor or wxGlade to do some of that. I also hear that there's something called wxDesigner, but that's a commercial product. I personally do it by hand as I like to tweak my code and I learn it much better this way.

Or,

do you have multiple Python versions installed? IDLE may be launching in
Python 2.5, whereas you installed wx for 2.6. I helped someone who had
this issue in IRC yesterday, so it may be a possibility.

wxformbuilder has python code generation if you don't mind using the
beta version...

I've only used it once but it seemed to work well.
