When I create a wx.grid.Grid instance and add it as a flatnotebook page:
self.dataNotebook.AddPage(dataSubsetGrid, dataSubsetTitle, True)
everything works perfectly. The page gets added and is filled by the grid.
When I create a panel and add it
page = wx.Panel(self.dataNotebook, -1)
self.dataNotebook.AddPage(page, “test”, True)
the results look garbled. The best way I can describe it is that it looks like a tiny scroll panel is appearing above the flatnotebook into the toolbar, though the new page is getting created. The flatnotebook itself occupies the entire panel within the top level frame, so this scroll panel that appears is outside of the flatnotebook entirely and all within the toolbar above it.
I left out a lot of details, because I’m assuming there’s something obviously wrong with my code above, since it’s a simple panel creation and then I’m adding it to the flatnotebook exactly as I added the grid, which worked fine. I can provide further details if necessary. I’ve been searching Google all day and can’t find anything that addresses this.
Thanks for your help!

1) Platform, Python version and wxPython version;
2) Whether you are using AGW from SVN or not;
3) Sample app that demonstrates the problem.
From the pseudo-code you posted, I can't see anything wrong, but maybe
my lack of sleep is killing my wxPython-fu.

I’m guessing there’s a parenting issue. Something is getting the wrong parent. You can use the Widget Inspection Tool to help you figure it out. Which reminds me, does it “snap” into place if you resize the frame? If so, then you just need a Layout() in there somewhere, usually at the end.

Thanks, Andrea!
I figured I would need to create a sample app, so I’ll get started on that.
I was hoping that there was something obviously wrong with my code that I just couldn’t see.
Thanks!

That’s what I thought too, based on a panel appearing outside of the added page. But the parent of the page Panel is the flatnotebook, and the parent of the flatnotebook is the panel within the top level frame. Weird. I’ll give the Widget Inspection Tool a shot.
Thanks!

Hi Mike,
Yes, it was a parenting issue. Thanks so much for your help. Most of all, thanks for suggesting the Widget Inspection Tool, which made it incredibly quick to figure out the problem! How did I go so long without knowing about the Widget Inspection Tool???
Thanks again for your help!

Good point. I’m always bemused whenever I write that out as an answer to someone.
