I want to create an Help page for my wxWidgets application, which consists of only text of various fonts, sizes and colors. I tried achieving that with wxStaticText's and sizers but I was having trouble so I switched to a wxRichTextCtrl, which I like to use. The problem is, the text should of course be non-modifiable. I know of the existance of the wxRE_READONLY flag, but it doesn't hide the caret that appears when I click on the text.
Isn't there some kind of wxRichStaticTextCtrl that works exactly like a wxRichTextCtrl, but is readonly by default and doesn't have this problem? I tried looking online, but to no avail.
The best solution for "rich" static text is wxHtmlWindow: this allows you to just define your help contents in terms of simple HTML which is usually more than enough.
