Syntax:

Code Example:
import wx
class Example(wx.Frame):
global count
count = 0;
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(Example, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.InitUI()
def InitUI(self):
pnl = wx.Panel(self)
self.toolbar = self.CreateToolBar()
# declare control
ctrl = wx.Control(self.toolbar, id = 19, pos = wx.DefaultPosition, size = wx.DefaultSize, style = 0, name ='control')
# create control tool
self.ptool = self.toolbar.CreateTool(ctrl, "control")
self.btn = wx.Button(pnl, label ='Add created tool', pos =(20, 20))
self.btn.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.Onclick)
self.toolbar.Realize()
self.SetSize((350, 250))
self.SetTitle('Control')
self.Centre()
def Onclick(self, e):
# Add control tool
self.toolbar.AddTool(self.ptool)
self.btn.SetLabel("Added tool")
def main():
app = wx.App()
ex = Example(None)
ex.Show()
app.MainLoop()
