wxPython and Tkinter

[whatazor]

Hi all,
I migrate some code from tkinter to wxpython. I need the equivalent
Tkinter method Tkinter.Tk.after
in wxPython, but I'm not able to find it. It exist or there are other
trick to emulate it?

thank you

"after" in Tk method allows to all a function every X milliseconds.

I think you need to setup an wx.Timer object.
self.timer = wx.Timer(self)
self.Bind(wx.EVT_TIMER, self.OnTimer, self.timer)

where the self.OnTimer is the method you want to call.
You need to start the timer:
self.timer.Start()

That's it, I think.

That should definitely work. For documentation, see the following

For a one-shot call, you can just use wx.CallLater.

wx.CallAfter may be useful too, depending on what you were using after() for.
