wxpython dialog

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to display various types of dialogs using wxPython, a popular GUI toolkit for Python.
Dialogs play an essential role in user interaction, informing users or seeking confirmation on certain operations. With wxPython, showing these dialogs is straightforward.

Information Dialog in wxPython
An information dialog is a simple way to convey messages to users. Here’s how you can display one using wxPython:

1
2
3
4

import wx

app = wx.App()
wx.MessageBox('Pythonspot wxWidgets demo', 'Info', wx.OK | wx.ICON_INFORMATION)

The first parameter is the message text, the second specifies the dialog title, and the last one defines the dialog’s behavior and appearance.

Other wxPython Dialogs: Warning, Error, and Default
By tweaking the parameters, you can also create other dialog types. Let’s look at a few examples:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12

import wx

app = wx.App()

# Simple dialog
wx.MessageBox('A dialog', 'Title', wx.OK)

# Warning dialog
wx.MessageBox('Operation could not be completed', 'Warning', wx.OK | wx.ICON_WARNING)

# Error dialog
wx.MessageBox('Operation could not be completed', 'Error', wx.OK | wx.ICON_ERROR)

Creating a Question Dialog in wxPython
wxPython also allows for creating question dialogs, which can be used to seek yes/no responses from users:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11

import wx

app = wx.App()

dlg = wx.MessageDialog(None, "Do you want to update?",'Updater',wx.YES_NO | wx.ICON_QUESTION)
result = dlg.ShowModal()

if result == wx.ID_YES:
    print("Yes pressed")
else:
    print("No pressed")

Once again, remember that wxPython makes it convenient to create and manage GUI applications. The dialogs shown are just a small part of its capabilities.
