.. class:: GenStaticText(wx.Control)
:class:`GenStaticText` is a generic implementation of :class:`wx.StaticText`.
.. method:: __init__(self, parent, ID=-1, label="", pos=wx.DefaultPosition, size=wx.DefaultSize, style=0, name="genstattext")
Default class constructor.
:param `parent`: parent window, must not be ``None``;
:param integer `ID`: window identifier. A value of -1 indicates a default value;
:param string `label`: the static text label (i.e., its text label);
:param `pos`: the control position. A value of (-1, -1) indicates a default position,
chosen by either the windowing system or wxPython, depending on platform;
:param `size`: the control size. A value of (-1, -1) indicates a default size,
chosen by either the windowing system or wxPython, depending on platform;
:param integer `style`: the underlying :class:`wx.Control` style;
:param string `name`: the widget name.
:type parent: :class:`wx.Window`
:type pos: tuple or :class:`wx.Point`
:type size: tuple or :class:`wx.Size`
.. method:: AcceptsFocus(self)
Can this window be given focus by mouse click?
.. note:: Overridden from :class:`wx.Control`.
.. method:: Disable(self)
Disables the control.
:returns: ``True`` if the window has been disabled, ``False`` if it had been
already disabled before the call to this function.
.. note:: This is functionally equivalent of calling :meth:`~wx.Window.Enable`
with a ``False`` flag.
.. note:: Overridden from :class:`wx.Control`.
.. method:: DoGetBestSize(self)
Overridden base class virtual. Determines the best size of
the control based on the label size and the current font.
.. note:: Overridden from :class:`wx.Control`.
.. method:: Enable(self, enable=True)
Enable or disable the widget for user input.
:param bool `enable`: If ``True``, enables the window for input. If
``False``, disables the window.
:returns: ``True`` if the window has been enabled or disabled,
``False`` if nothing was done, i.e. if the window had already been
in the specified state.
.. note:: Note that when a parent window is disabled, all of its
children are disabled as well and they are re-enabled again when
the parent is.
.. note:: Overridden from :class:`wx.Control`.
.. method:: GetDefaultAttributes(self)
Overridden base class virtual. By default we should use
the same font/colour attributes as the native :class:`wx.StaticText`.
.. note:: Overridden from :class:`wx.Control`.
.. method:: OnEraseBackground(self, event)
Handles the ``wx.EVT_ERASE_BACKGROUND`` event for :class:`GenStaticText`.
:param `event`: a :class:`wx.EraseEvent` event to be processed.
.. note:: This is intentionally empty to reduce flicker.
.. method:: OnPaint(self, event)
Handles the ``wx.EVT_PAINT`` for :class:`GenStaticText`.
:param `event`: a :class:`wx.PaintEvent` event to be processed.
.. method:: SetFont(self, font)
Sets the static text font and updates the control's size to exactly
fit the label unless the control has ``wx.ST_NO_AUTORESIZE`` flag.
:param wx.Font `font`: a valid font instance, which will be the new font used
to display the text.
.. method:: SetLabel(self, label)
Sets the static text label and updates the control's size to exactly
fit the label unless the control has ``wx.ST_NO_AUTORESIZE`` flag.
:param string `label`: the static text label (i.e., its text label).
.. method:: ShouldInheritColours(self)
Overridden base class virtual. If the parent has non-default
colours then we want this control to inherit them.
.. note:: Overridden from :class:`wx.Control`.
