How to divide gui space proportionally.

did you called:
self.SetSizer(flexsizer)

No, and that did clear up part of the problem. I will keep working on it,
and I'm pretty sure I will get it. I will make the whole thing one giant
flexgrid sizer and see if that works. Currently I have a big boxsizer and
the flexgridsizer inside of it.

?
what os and version of wx are you using?

Windows 2000 and 2.3

Thanks so much!
