[wx-dev] [all] scrolled windows and panels

[Julian Smart]

Hi,

In my StoryLines app I have a class derived from wxScrolledWindow which 
for the most part doesn't have children, and must accept the focus. But 
sometimes a temporary control will be created on the window to allow 
text editing in situ. Which scrolled window would I choose? I guess 
wxScrolledControl, so that it accepts focus, and I would have to deal 
with tab traversal myself if required.

Couldn't we just have a style and/or accessor to change the tab 
traversal behaviour? I do think that making the user choose between two 
similarly-named classes is going to introduce undesirable complexity, 
which I'd like to see avoided if possible. (I can see that deriving from 
a panel is conceptual overkill in some cases, but the advantage is 
simplicity of API and reduced confusing choice.)

Thanks,

Julian
