Title: Mach4 GUI Handle
Post by: DazTheGas on October 12, 2015, 11:12:31 AM

A bit of a long shot here, but is there anybody that knows how to retrieve the wxWindow handle for mach4 using lua/wxlua

got a small macro that needs to get input from the user, however it needs the wxWindow handle to run.

It needs the handle of the current active mach4 gui. there is  a command mcGuiGetWindowHandle but that is at the api level where we cant go from lua.

Don't know if this works but try:

wx.wxGetParent();

or

wx.wxGetGrandParent();
