EVT_NAVIGATION_KEY events are used to control moving the focus between widgets, otherwise known as tab-traversal. You woudl normally not catch navigation events in applications as there are already appropriate handlers in wx.Dialog and wx.Panel, but you may find it useful to send navigation events in certain situations to change the focus in certain ways, although it's probably easier to just call wx.Window.Navigate.

Method Summary
NavigationKeyEvent	`__init__(self)`
Window	`GetCurrentFocus(self)` Returns the child window which currenty has the focus.
bool	`GetDirection(self)` Returns `True` if the direction is forward, `False` otherwise.
bool	`IsFromTab(self)` Returns `True` if the navigation event is originated from the Tab key.
bool	`IsWindowChange(self)` Returns `True` if window change is allowed.
	`SetCurrentFocus(self, win)` Set the window that has the focus.
	`SetDirection(self, forward)` Specify the direction that the navigation should take.
	`SetFlags(self, flags)` Set the navigation flags to a combination of the following:
	`SetFromTab(self, bIs)` Set to true under MSW if the event was generated using the tab key.
	`SetWindowChange(self, ischange)` Specify if the navigation should be able to change parent windows.

Property Summary
	`CurrentFocus`: See `GetCurrentFocus` and `SetCurrentFocus`
	`Direction`: See `GetDirection` and `SetDirection`
	`thisown`: The membership flag

Class Variable Summary

Method Details

GetCurrentFocus(self)

Returns the child window which currenty has the focus. May be None.

Returns:: Window

GetDirection(self)

Returns True if the direction is forward, False otherwise.

Returns:: bool

IsFromTab(self)

Returns True if the navigation event is originated from the Tab key.

Returns:: bool

IsWindowChange(self)

Returns True if window change is allowed.

Returns:: bool

SetCurrentFocus(self, win)

Set the window that has the focus.

Parameters:: win
(type=Window)

SetDirection(self, forward)

Specify the direction that the navigation should take. Usually the difference between using Tab and Shift-Tab.

Parameters:: forward
(type=bool)

SetFlags(self, flags)

Set the navigation flags to a combination of the following:

wx.NavigationKeyEvent.IsBackward

wx.NavigationKeyEvent.IsForward

wx.NavigationKeyEvent.WinChange

wx.NavigationKeyEvent.FromTab

Parameters:: flags
(type=long)

SetFromTab(self, bIs)

Set to true under MSW if the event was generated using the tab key. This is required for proper navogation over radio buttons.

Parameters:: bIs
(type=bool)

SetWindowChange(self, ischange)

Specify if the navigation should be able to change parent windows. For example, changing notebook pages, etc. This is usually implemented by using Control-Tab.

Parameters:: ischange
(type=bool)
