Hello.
I don’t know how to hide/show the AUI pane anymore. Tried different ways, nothing works.

Tried:

 pane = auiLayout.GetPane("Project files")
 pane.Hide() #It doesn't work

 pane = auiLayout.GetPane("Project files")
 pane.Show(False) #It doesn't work

You can give the panel a name via .Name("..."), then reference it in GetPane and then call Update() to update the layout

        self.mgr = AUIManager(self)

        ...

        self.mgr.AddPane(self.mypanel,
                          aui.AuiPaneInfo()
                          .Name("mypanel")
                          .Right().Layer(2)
                          .BestSize(360, 500))

        pane = self.mgr.GetPane("mypanel")
        pane.Show() # Will show the pane
        pane.Hide() # Will hide the pane
        self.mgr.Update() # Make sure to call Update()

Ah. I understand. I searched not by name, but by caption, and therefore nothing worked for me. Thank you :+1:
