    wxGlade is a GUI builder for wxWidgets and wxPython.

    The documentation includes a tutorial for people who have not used wxPython before.
    Included are also examples for integration with matplotlib.
    A snapshot of the documentation is available at http://wxglade.sourceforge.net/docs/index.html


    For support, there's a mailing list at https://sourceforge.net/p/wxglade/mailman/wxglade-general/
    git repository and bug tracker are at https://github.com/wxGlade/wxGlade
    (These pages are also linked from the help menu.)



    Changes in revision 1.0.x:
    ==========================

    Besides many improvements in usability, code generation and widget support, this is also a major internal refactoring of the main data structure and how widgets in the Design window are created / updated / destroyed.


    *General:*
     - sizers only required where wx requires them; not required e.g. for
       Frame->Panel (used to be Frame->Sizer->Panel)
     - better handling of display updates when properties are edited
     - accessibility and usability improvements
     - Dialog example
     - documentation update

    *Widgets:*
     - all: separate class related properties into Class / Base Classes /
    Instance Class
     - Dialog: add StdDialogButtonSizer and standard buttons (stock items);
       support SetAffirmativeId, SetEscapeId
     - Button: support for image direction
     - MenuBar: support lambda event handlers
     - GridBagSizer: indicate overlapped slots in the Tree view

    *Generated Code:*
     - no separation into __set_properties/__do_layout any more
     - support for instantiation classes

    *Internal:*
     - internal structures refactored
     - add shell window and Tree Printer

    wxGlade is released under the MIT license.


    Happy New Year,
