Bug in wxAUIToolBar, (and maybe in wx.Sizer's SetItemMinSize)

[michael h]

I've encounter a previously reported bug (read at the bottom of this
message) while trying to use AddControl with an AuiToolbar...

Poking around in auibar.py i tried replacing:

sizer_item.SetMinSize(min_size)
ctrl_sizer_item.SetMinSize(min_size)


with:

sizer.SetItemMinSize(sizer_item, min_size)
sizer.SetItemMinSize(ctrl_sizer_item, min_size)

which threw the error:

TypeError: wx.Window, wx.Sizer or int (position) expected for item

(shouldn't it expect a wx.SizerItem?)

Then I decided to see what would happen if I just commented out the
lines, and everything worked fine... Am I missing something? I know
the source says:

# proportional items will disappear from the toolbar
if
# their min width is not set to something really small

It doesn't appear that the toolbar is suffering any ill effects unless
I'm missing something (which is very likely).


Can anyone comment on any of this?
