      **__init__** `(self)`
      
      Default constructor.

      **__init__** `(self, parent, flags=BORDER_NONE)`
      
      Constructor.                  
      
      
      :param `parent`: 
      :type `parent`: wx.Window

      :type `flags`: int
      
      
      
      
      
      
      **~~~**






   .. method:: Dismiss(self)

      Hide the window.                   





   .. method:: OnDismiss(self)

      This is called when the popup is disappeared because of anything else but direct call to :meth:`Dismiss` .                   





   .. method:: Popup(self, focus=None)

      Popup the window (this will show it too).                  

      If `winFocus`  is not ``None``, it will be kept focused while this window is shown, otherwise this window itself will receive focus. In any case, the popup will disappear automatically if it loses focus because of a user action. 

                


      :param `focus`: 
      :type `focus`: wx.Window






      .. seealso:: :meth:`Dismiss`     








   .. method:: ProcessLeftDown(self, event)

      Called when a mouse is pressed while the popup is shown.                  

      Return ``True`` from here to prevent its normal processing by the popup (which consists in dismissing it if the mouse is clicked outside it).                  


      :param `event`: 
      :type `event`: wx.MouseEvent




      :rtype: `bool`
