💅 wxSysCol...ngedEvent (3erl)

ok so bestie, we're in the Erlang module definitions corner of the docs, and today's main character is wxSysColourChangedEvent ✨ (yes the header truncates it, don't come for me, that's just how it's printed, iykyk)

🌈 NAME

wxSysColourChangedEvent — literally just the functions for the wxSysColourChangedEvent class 🎀

---

💖 DESCRIPTION

okay so this class is for system colour change events, which get generated when the user goes and changes their colour settings using the control panel 🎨✨. and ngl? this is only appropriate under Windows 👑. fr fr.

Remark: the default event handler for this event propagates the event to child windows, because Windows only sends these events to top-level windows 🪟💀. so if you're intercepting this event for a top-level window, please remember to call the base class handler, or to pass the event on to the window's children explicitly 🙏. like, do not skip this step bestie, the vibes will be off and your kids won't get the memo 🫶.

See: Overview events 👀

This class is derived (and can use functions) from: wxEvent 🧬 (it's giving nepo baby but make it inheritance)
