wxPython - which is the better sizer to use with notebook

Hi,

What sizers do people use to
- contain the notebook control in a Frame and,
- contain the contents of a single page of the notebook.

At the moment Im using a GridBagSizer for both but this seems to be
overkill.
Is a BoxSizer a better option?

Thanks
Chris

Yes, use box sizer if you have to place only one control or when you
need to place a row or column of controls.

And you don't need to specify an orientation either (vertical or
horizontal), since it doesn't matter. :)

Hello All, I have a frame that contains a panel and several buttons. I'd like to make one of the button the default button but self.SetDefaultItem(btn) or btn.SetFocus() don't work. The item in focus is a text control inside the panel. Any Ideas? (see short example below) Thanks.

Can anybody recommend a good book on wxPython? Are there any books on wxPython? I've been trying to learn wxPython and/or wax for a few weeks, and I'm just not getting it. wxWindows seems to be more low-level than the other GUI toolkits I've used (Tk, GTK, and Trestle), and there are all sorts exposed details in wxWindows/wxPython that I find weird.

Hello, I have a short question about sizers and how they work when I have a frame or panel with a complex sizer hierarchie. When creating a new sizer which sits itself in its parent sizer, should I add the new sizer to the parent sizer and then populate the new sizer with its controls (some of them might be sizers on their own) or should I populate the new sizer with all its controls before I add the new sizer to its parent sizer? Or...

I often use Notebook to structure my GUIs. Sometimes I have to provide a Settings page. Doing changes in this page influences other pages in such a way, that some controls have to change add or remove children or even have to be removed from the page at all. Yet I could not come up with a solid pattern how to do this. I tried to call DestroyChildren(), delete all ref's to them, and to set the page's sizer to None. This doesn't work very...

Hello All: I am currently working on a project to create an FEM model for school. I was thinking about using wxPython to gather the 12 input variables from the user, then, after pressing the "Run" button, the GUI would close, and the 12 input variables would then be available for the rest of the program. So far, what I have been able to do is mostly a reverse engineering job to get the frame to look right and return the text variable...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
