[Biplab]

Hi all,

Just found that the wxWidgets-2.8.2-RC1 has been released. All the versions are available from the following link.

http://biolpc22.york.ac.uk/pub/2.8.2-rc1/

I'm quoting a part of the changelog.

2.8.2
All:

- Added wxSizerFlags::Shaped(), FixedMinSize(), Top() and Bottom() methods.
- Added wxCSConv::IsOk() (Manuel Martin).
- Added wxDateTime::GetDateOnly().
- Made wxTextFile work with unseekable files again (David Hart).
- Added wxCONFIG_USE_SUBDIR flag to wxFileConfig (Giuseppe Bilotta).
- Added wxSearchCtrl::[Get|Set]DescriptiveText.
- Added wxToolBar::SetTool[Normal|Disabled]Bitmap for wxMSW, wxGTK and wxMac.
- Added wxRICHTEXT_SETSTYLE_REMOVE flag for removing styles, and
  wxRICHTEXT_HITTEST_OUTSIDE for more accurate hit-testing.
- Fixed a crash when writing wxRichTextCtrl styles.

wxMSW

- Fix lack of spin control update event when control lost focus.
- Corrected drawing of bitmaps for disabled menu items.

I've highlighted two most interesting changes. May be it can fix the regression with Toolbar Image. Already fixed in C::B's wx DLL

Regards,

Biplab

This is already in our custom 2.6 DLL, I back-ported the change(s) three weeks or so ago.

Thanks for pointing out. I'm already using it since it was released (Means your modified dll).

FYI:

Code added to msw/menu.cpp in last week; it needs added to my 2.6 back-port once I test it.
I have no idea if C::B uses this feature. Note, this is in 2.8 Branch code no idea if it is in 2.8.2.

Code

        // update the check item when it's clicked
        wxMenuItem * const item = FindItem(id);
        if ( item && item->IsCheckable() )
            item->Toggle();
