DataViewListCtrl: how to use AppendIconTextColumn

[dario...@gmail.com]

I'm sorry but I haven't been able to find any examples for using AppendIconTextColumn in a DataViewListCtrl: how should I modify the following script in order to make the icon created with List.make_icon appear next to the 'Test' item?

####################################################
import wx
import wx.dataview


class List(wx.dataview.DataViewListCtrl):
    def __init__(self, parent):
        super(List, self).__init__(parent)
        imagelist = wx.ImageList(16, 16)
        imagelist.Add(self.make_icon())
        self.AppendIconTextColumn('Test', 0)
        self.AppendItem(('Test', ))

    def make_icon(self):
        bitmap = wx.EmptyBitmap(16, 16)
        dc = wx.MemoryDC()
        dc.SelectObject(bitmap)
        dc.SetBackground(wx.RED_BRUSH)
        dc.Clear()
        dc.SelectObject(wx.NullBitmap)
        return bitmap


app = wx.App()
frame = wx.Frame(None)
List(frame)
frame.Centre()
frame.Show()
app.MainLoop()

Instead of using a plain string in the data for the row, try using a
wx.dataview.DataViewIconText. Like this:

self.AppendItem( (wx.dataview.DataViewIconText('Text', icon),) )

Uh now I get it, that does work indeed, thank you!
