Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] WX Gui Scope Sink, odd appearance in Windows vs. Ubuntu

[Seth Hollar]

Hi Arturo,
I did two things:
1) I changed the config file located in c:\users\USERNAME\config.conf 
per your suggestion
2) I installed PyOpenGL

When I ran BER Simulation, I got a couple of errors dealing with the GUI:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File 
"C:\gnuradio\install\lib\site-packages\gnuradio\wxgui\forms\forms.py", 
line 100, in <lambda>
    widget.Bind(EVT_DATA, lambda x: self._update(x.data))
  File 
"C:\gnuradio\install\lib\site-packages\gnuradio\wxgui\forms\forms.py", 
line 503, in _update
    def _update(self, i): self._notebook.SetSelection(i, 0)
  File 
"C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\wx-2.8-msw-unicode\wx\_controls.py", line 
3021, in SetSelection
    return _controls_.BookCtrlBase_SetSelection(*args, **kwargs)
TypeError: BookCtrlBase_SetSelection() takes at most 2 arguments (3 given)

As best as I can tell, the function for the widget, SetSelection, cannot 
handle receiving a -1.  I'm guessing that what works under some OS's 
doesn't necessarily work under others with native controls.

In the end, I reverted back to not using OpenGL.  I, too, would be 
curious if anyone got the OpenGl version of the Scope working.

Thanks for your help.
