moccasin gui won't launch

Trying to start the moccasin gui failes with:

I think the function should be:

def wxSetToolTip(item, text):
    if _WX4:
        item.SetToolTip(text)
    else:
        item.SetToolTipString( text )

instead of the self-statusBar thing

What is the version of wxpython you are using?

[fbergmann]

whatever anaconda had ... let me see ...

wx.__version__
Out[2]: '3.0.0.0'

and that makes perfect sense, as i was hitting the else part of the set-tooltip function, that needed the correction.

Thanks for the report and the fix. I put it in a branch (https://github.com/sbmlteam/moccasin/tree/bugfix-1.1.3). If you're able to test it in your environment, I'd appreciate finding out how if it's enough.

[fbergmann]

And indeed with that the user interface starts just fine.

thank you

Closing this as a bug that will be fixed in the version 1.2 release.
