I need to make a StaticText red, what should I use?
This should work:
text.SetForegroundColour(wx.Colour(255,255,255))
If you are using it inside the panel or frame's class then:
self.text.SetForegroundColour(wx.Colour(255,255,255))
wx.Colour takes RGB values which can be used for different colours.
wx.Colour
