How to set icon on wxFrame?

How can I add an icon (.ico file) to a wxFrame?

I was looking in the docs but can't find any mention of icon.

Thanks!

Solution

  • I tried this setting in py2exe setup file, but it didn't do anything:

    windows = [
        {
            "script": "myscript.py",
            "icon_resources": [(1, "icon.ico")]
        }
    ],

    But this ended up working. Self is wx.Frame instance:

    icon = wx.EmptyIcon()
icon.CopyFromBitmap(wx.Bitmap("icon.ico", wx.BITMAP_TYPE_ANY))
self.SetIcon(icon)

    Hope this helps some others.
