Dialogs in wxPython - ImageDialog

(Page 4 of 6 )

The ImageDialog is a very nice dialog. It displays the images in a given directory. It's very simple to use:

from wxPython.wx import *

# Import the required module

from wxPython.lib import imagebrowser

application = wxPySimpleApp()

# Create the dialog

dialog = imagebrowser.ImageDialog ( None )

# Show the dialog

dialog.ShowModal()

# Destroy the dialog

dialog.Destroy()

Of course, we'll need to retrieve the file name of the image that the user specifies. This is easily done:

from wxPython.wx import *

from wxPython.lib import imagebrowser

application = wxPySimpleApp()

dialog = imagebrowser.ImageDialog ( None )

# Display the file name if the user selected one

if dialog.ShowModal() == wxID_OK:

   print 'You picked:', dialog.GetFile()

# Otherwise, yell and scream at the user for cancelling

else:

   print 'You did not select an image!'

dialog.Destroy()

If we need to set a directory other than the current directory, it's possible to do so by passing a second argument:

from wxPython.wx import *

from wxPython.lib import imagebrowser

application = wxPySimpleApp()

# Specify a directory

dialog = imagebrowser.ImageDialog ( None, 'C:\' )

if dialog.ShowModal() == wxID_OK:

   print 'You picked:', dialog.GetFile()

else:

   print 'You did not select an image!'

dialog.Destroy()
