xbmcgui.Window().getControl(id)

Posted on Author tiniownzyou



Looking at the documentation for xbmcgui.Window class getControl() and also kodi_stubs

According to the documentation:

Code:
Note
Not python controls are not completely usable yet You can only use the Control functions

I guess kodi_stubs tries to enforce this by annotating the return as xbmcgui.Control instance.

However, at least for xml windows it looks like getControl actually returns one of the subclasses like ControlButton.  I see a lot of example code that is calling methods from the subclass such as setLabel().  So what is the reality on what getControl() does and what subclass methods should work?
