Summary: wxListCtrl Row Highlight

Initial Comment:
I developed a sample that should show the problem I am trying to describe:
import wx


class ListCtrlPanel(wx.Panel):
  def __init__(self, parent):
    wx.Panel.__init__(self, parent, style = wx.TAB_TRAVERSAL | wx.CLIP_CHILDREN | wx.FULL_REPAINT_ON_RESIZE)
    self.list = wx.ListCtrl(self, style=wx.LC_ICON|wx.LC_AUTOARRANGE|wx.LC_SINGLE_SEL|wx.LC_HRULES|wx.LC_VRULES|wx.LC_NO_SORT_HEADER|wx.LC_SORT_DESCENDING)
    self.choice = wx.Choice(self, -1, choices=['ICON', 'REPORT', 'LIST'])
    self.choice.SetSelection(0)
    sizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx.VERTICAL)
    sizer.Add(self.choice)
    sizer.Add(self.list, 1, wx.EXPAND )

    self.list.InsertColumn(0, "a")
    self.list.InsertColumn(1, "b")
    self.list.InsertColumn(2, "c")
    self.list.InsertColumn(3, "d")
    self.list.InsertColumn (4, "e")
    self.list.InsertStringItem(0, "test")

    self.SetSizer(sizer)

    self.Bind(wx.EVT_CHOICE, self.OnChoice)

  def OnChoice(self, event):
    if self.choice.GetStringSelection () == 'ICON':
      self.list.SetSingleStyle(wx.LC_ICON)
    elif self.choice.GetStringSelection() == 'REPORT':
      self.list.SetSingleStyle(wx.LC_REPORT)
    elif self.choice.GetStringSelection () == 'LIST':
      self.list.SetSingleStyle(wx.LC_LIST)


class TestFrame(wx.Frame):
  def __init__(self, parent):
    wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent, -1, "Tester", size=(500,500))

    ListCtrlPanel(self)

    self.CenterOnScreen()


if __name__ == '__main__':
  app = wx.App()

  frame = TestFrame(None)

  frame.Show()
  app.MainLoop()


If you run my example as shown when you switch to report view and you click on a column (not header) it will not choose the item and highlight the whole row.  If you start the example in report view and you do the same test it will highlight the whole row.

I can confirm that the fix works in the trunk.

Should be fixed by r51390:
http://svn.wxwidgets.org/viewvc/wx?view=rev&revision=51390

If it can be confirmed that this indeed works we could backport the fix to
2.8 too.

To summarize:  Switching a wxListCtrl from wxLC_ICON mode to wxLC_REPORT
mode using SetSingleStyle works, except only the item in the first column
is selected when it is clicked on, not the whole row.  When creating the
wxListCtrl with the wxLC_REPORT style then the whole row is selected.
