wx.Frame hidden, and customising the close button

[Mark Carter]

Is there a way of testing whether a frame (suppose I have it as a
variable my_frame) is hidden in wxPython?

Also, is there a way that I can over-ride the close button so that the
frame becomes hidden rather than destroyed, and perform supplementary
tests?

Hi,
For testing whether the frame is shown, you can simply use frm.IsShown()
[here shown with a shell connected to that frame]

To intercept closing the window using a clicks on the "x icon" catch
the respective event
wx.EVT_CLOSE

Check the sample e.g. in
http://wiki.wxpython.org/wxPython by Example
"Adding an Event Handler"
