There's a method to set the "letter spacing" for a wx.TextCtrl? (or another widget where I can show a small phrase)
Or is a property of the wx.Font?
Or is a inherent property of the font face I'm using?
A work-around I could implement is to write my custom control (maybe derived from RichTextCtrl) where I draw each character one by one, and add the selected spacing between them. But then it would be a lot less efficient to calculate (giving an example) the area of the text. This is rather simple with a ClientDC.
No, I don't believe this is a feature of any of the text controls or their variants. You could set the wx.Font to a monospace font, but that's probably about as good as you can get going the "automatic" way. I would recommend drawing it yourself if that's really what you need.
