Gui API page missing?

Fahed · September 1, 2016, 3:52am

Hi,

I’m trying to access the API for psychopy.gui.dlgfromDict but can’t seem to find it. A google search links to a blank page labelled ‘no title’. Has the page been removed?

Incidentally, using the dialogue box, I used to be able to insert a drop down box by entering a list as the value in the dictionary, but recently, although the drop down box appears, I cannot select any other value besides the first - any other selection automatically reverts to the first item in the list.

Thanks,
Fahed

That is weird, the GUI API doc page does indeed seem to have become blank on the last release. The API docs are (or should be…) automatically generated from the comments in the source code. So in the interim, browse the comments here (also available in your own local copy of PsychoPy):

    try:
        wx.Dialog(None, -1)  # not shown; FileDialog gives same exception
        return True
    except wx._core.PyNoAppError:

The GUI API page has been restored: http://www.psychopy.org/api/gui.html
