wx.lib.mixins.inspection.InspectionMixin

This class is intended to be used as a mix-in with the App. When used it will add the ability to popup a InspectionFrame window where the widget under the mouse cursor will be selected in the tree and loaded into the shell’s namespace as ‘obj’. The default key sequence to activate the inspector is Ctrl-Alt-I (or Cmd-Alt-I on Mac) but this can be changed via parameters to the Init method, or the application can call ShowInspectionTool from other event handlers if desired.

To use this class simply derive a class from App and InspectionMixin and then call the InspectionMixin.Init method from the app’s AppConsole.OnInit method.

InitInspection(self, pos=wx.DefaultPosition, size=wx.Size(850, 700), config=None, locals=None, alt=True, cmd=True, shift=False, keyCode=ord('I'))

Parameters:

• pos – the control position. A value of (-1, -1) indicates a default position, chosen by either the windowing system or wxPython, depending on platform;
• size – the control size. A value of (-1, -1) indicates a default size, chosen by either the windowing system or wxPython, depending on platform;
• config – A Config object to be used to store layout and other info to when the inspection frame is closed. This info will be restored the next time the inspection frame is used.
• locals – A dictionary of names to be added to the PyCrust namespace.
• alt (boolean) – use alt in the short cut sequence
