Just the image -- a bitmap if you want, or just the screen itself. Any 
selection or anything you want you'd have to write yourself. But 
wx.StaticText doesn't provide selectable text either.

Maybe you want the wx.RichTextCtrl, or another solution.

If you give us the "big picture" of what you are trying to do, we can 
make suggestions as to how you might do it.
