\section{wxGrid classes overview}\label{gridoverview}
Classes: \helpref{wxGrid}{wxgrid}
\subsection{Introduction}
wxGrid and its related classes are used for displaying and editing tabular data.
\subsection{Getting started: a simple example}
For simple applications you need only refer to the wxGrid class in your
code. This example shows how you might create a grid in a frame or
dialog constructor and illustrates some of the formatting functions.
\begin{verbatim}
// Create a wxGrid object
grid = new wxGrid( this,
-1,
wxPoint( 0, 0 ),
wxSize( 400, 300 ) );
// Then we call CreateGrid to set the dimensions of the grid
// (100 rows and 10 columns in this example)
grid->CreateGrid( 100, 10 );
// We can set the sizes of individual rows and columns
// in pixels
grid->SetRowSize( 0, 60 );
grid->SetColSize( 0, 120 );
// And set grid cell contents as strings
grid->SetCellValue( 0, 0, "wxGrid is good" );
// We can specify that some cells are read-only
grid->SetCellValue( 0, 3, "This is read-only" );
grid->SetReadOnly( 0, 3 );
// Colours can be specified for grid cell contents
grid->SetCellValue(3, 3, "green on grey");
grid->SetCellTextColour(3, 3, *wxGREEN);
grid->SetCellBackgroundColour(3, 3, *wxLIGHT_GREY);
// We can specify the some cells will store numeric
// values rather than strings. Here we set grid column 5
// to hold floating point values displayed with width of 6
// and precision of 2
grid->SetColFormatFloat(5, 6, 2);
grid->SetCellValue(0, 6, "3.1415");
\end{verbatim}
