==========================================================================================================================================
|phoenix_title|  **wx.StaticBitmap**
==========================================================================================================================================

A static bitmap control displays a bitmap.          

Native implementations on some platforms are only meant for display of the small icons in the dialog boxes. In particular, under Windows 9x the size of bitmap is limited to 64x64 pixels. 

If you want to display larger images portably, you may use generic implementation GenericStaticBitmap declared in <wx/generic/statbmpg.h>. 

Notice that for the best results, the size of the control should be the same as the size of the image displayed in it, as happens by default if if it's not resized explicitly. Otherwise, behaviour depends on the platform: under MSW, the bitmap is drawn centred inside the control, while elsewhere it is drawn at the origin of the control.
