wxPython: How to Save/Store/Capture/Return user input text.

[ekasII]

I'm trying to capture text input by user to file,

password = wx.TextCtrl(self.panel_1,wx.ID_ANY,pos=(230,150),size=(200,20),style= wx.TE_PASSWORD)
l__password_file = <path\file.txt>
l__get_password = password.GetLineText(1)
l__write_password = open(l__password_file,'w').write(l__get_password)

Somehow, GetLineText(1) does not capture the user input, it is suppose to return text on line 1, which must be the user input password, but it does not return anything, how can i capture input text?

You should be able to use:

l__get_password = password.GetValue()

Here's a link to the docs for wx.TextCtrl.Get Value()
Hope this helps!

I used event.GetString () in a function with the self.Bind(EVT_T EXT,<function>, <wxText_paramet ers>). Thanks anyway for the reply.
