Functions for wxPanel class
A panel is a window on which controls are placed. It is usually placed within a
frame. Its main feature over its parent class wxWindow is code for handling
child windows and TAB traversal, which is implemented natively if possible (e.g.
in wxGTK) or by wxWidgets itself otherwise.
Note: Tab traversal is implemented through an otherwise undocumented
intermediate wxControlContainer class from which any class can derive in
addition to the normal wxWindow base class. Please see and to find out how
this is achieved.
Note: if not all characters are being intercepted by your OnKeyDown or OnChar
handler, it may be because you are using the wxTAB_TRAVERSAL style, which
grabs some keypresses for use by child controls.
Remark: By default, a panel has the same colouring as a dialog.
See: wxDialog

Summary
Functions
Destructor.
Sends a wxInitDialogEvent, which in turn transfers data to the dialog via
validators.
Default constructor.
Constructor.
In contrast to wxWindow:setFocus/1 (see above) this will set the focus to the
panel even if there are child windows in the panel.
Types
-type wxPanel() :: wx:wx_object().
Functions
-spec destroy(This :: wxPanel()) -> ok.
Destructor.
Deletes any child windows before deleting the physical window.
-spec initDialog(This) -> ok when This :: wxPanel().
Sends a wxInitDialogEvent, which in turn transfers data to the dialog via
validators.
See: wxInitDialogEvent
-spec new() -> wxPanel().
Default constructor.
-spec new(Parent) -> wxPanel() when Parent :: wxWindow:wxWindow().
-spec new(Parent, [Option]) -> wxPanel() when Parent :: wxWindow:wxWindow(), Option :: {winid, integer()} | {pos, {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}} | {size, {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}} | {style, integer()}.
Constructor.
See: Create() (not implemented in wx)
-spec setFocusIgnoringChildren(This) -> ok when This :: wxPanel().
In contrast to wxWindow:setFocus/1 (see above) this will set the focus to the
panel even if there are child windows in the panel.
This is only rarely needed.
