trouble stealing wx.splitter code

[eric dexter]

I am trying to steal this code from the wxpython demo but it appears that mb comes from nowhere and I am having errors because of it

import  wx

#---------------------------------------------------------------------------

class MySplitter(wx.SplitterWindow):
    def __init__(self, parent, ID, log):
        wx.SplitterWindow.__init__(self, parent, ID,
                                   style = wx.SP_LIVE_UPDATE
                                   )
        self.log = log
        
        self.Bind(wx.EVT_SPLITTER_SASH_POS_CHANGED, self.OnSashChanged)
        self.Bind(wx.EVT_SPLITTER_SASH_POS_CHANGING, self.OnSashChanging)

    def OnSashChanged(self, evt):
        self.log.WriteText("sash changed to %s\n" % str(evt.GetSashPosition()))

    def OnSashChanging(self, evt):
        self.log.WriteText("sash changing to %s\n" % str(evt.GetSashPosition()))
        # uncomment this to not allow the change
        #evt.SetSashPosition(-1)


#---------------------------------------------------------------------------

def runTest(frame, nb, log):
    splitter = MySplitter(nb, -1, log)

    #sty = wx.BORDER_NONE
    #sty = wx.BORDER_SIMPLE
    sty = wx.BORDER_SUNKE
    
    p1 = wx.Window(splitter, style=sty)
    p1.SetBackgroundColour("pink")
    wx.StaticText(p1, -1, "Panel One", (5,5))

    p2 = wx.Window(splitter, style=sty)
    p2.SetBackgroundColour("sky blue")
    wx.StaticText(p2, -1, "Panel Two", (5,5))

    splitter.SetMinimumPaneSize(20)
    splitter.SplitVertically(p1, p2, -100)

    return splitter

to extend and revise it is in the run test code. When I try to cut and paste this where would I get the value from??

Here is what I was wanting to split in two (I don't know that I need a splitter but I have buttons that go one under the other and when I change that I get wierd glitches)

):

        wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent, -1, "Dex Tracker Score Editor", size=(640,480))
        p = wx.Panel(self, -1, style=0)
        self.grid = WordGrid(p, log)
        b = wx.Button(p, -1, "Save Grid")            #b gets numbered per button and then description set
        b2 = wx.Button(p, 100, "Add Line")
        b3 = wx.Button(p, -1, "Insert Line")
        b4 = wx.Button(p, -1, "Delete Line")
        b5 = wx.Button(p, -1, "Play from line to line")
        
        b.SetDefault()
        self.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.OnButton, b)    #bind to the button I am numbering them
        self.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.OnButton2, b2)
        self.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.OnButton3, b3)
        self.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.OnButton4, b4)
        self.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.OnButton5, b5)
        b.Bind(wx.EVT_SET_FOCUS, self.OnButtonFocus)  #bind button focus if needed
        #bs = wx.BoxSizer(wx.ALIGN_BOTTOM)
        #bs = wx.StaticBoxSizer(wx.
        bs = wx.BoxSizer(wx.HORIZONTAL)#(wx.VERTICAL)#|wx.ALIGN_BOTTOM)   #(wx.HORIZONTAL_HATCH)   #(wx.VERTICAL)
        #bs.Add(self.grid, 1, wx.GROW|wx.ALL, 5)
        bs.Add(b)                                     #add the button here numbered in par
        bs.Add(b2)
        bs.Add(b3)
        bs.Add(b4)
        bs.Add(b5)
        #p.placed
        bs = wx.BoxSizer(wx.VERTICAL)
        bs.Add(self.grid, 1, wx.GROW|wx.ALL, 5)
        p.SetSizer(bs)
