Custom dialog with ScrolledPanel component

wxPython Users
1

Hi All,

I’m trying to write a custom dialog which contains a ScrolledPanel. I can boilerplate what I want with a Panel and it works except the (on purpose) panel is truncated. So far so good. But when I use a ScrolledPanel in place of Panel and use SetupScrolling() the layout isn’t correct. I can see the top left corner of the top button on the ScrolledPanel only.

I’ve put a smallish example up at http://paste.ubuntu.com/6191739/ .

Can anyone point where I’m goofing?

Thanks,

Ross

You didn't set the bottom panel to take all the remaining space in the dialog (proportion=1) and you didn't add the subpanels to the bottom panel's sizer.

Thanks Robin,

I still have trouble getting things right in more complicated scenarios. I’ll start another thread on documentation.
