[wxPython-users] Re: question/request re listbook stuff

[Richard Terry]

downloaded and tried it - yes, that's the concept - sin icons!

Problem is that when one has multiple icons they take up heaps of vertical 
space and usually not useful. Of course, having the ability ot have small 
icons next to the label could be a really good feature.

Is this all something you could implement for us without too much trouble?

I'll flicked you a screen dump privately so as not to clutter the list  of how 
it would work for me (in the dump this is just a hyperlink control thingy)

Regards
