Layout broken on Windows

Hi,

Is there any documentation about how to be sure your layout stays put when you write your code on Linux and execute it on Windows ? I wrote a fairly simple program with a small GUI, wich is completely broken when I try it on Windows, mostly the sizers.

Thanks,

Daniel

I haven’t seen that issue when I use sizers. My apps have worked pretty much the same way across Windows and Linux. The only issue I have run into is that sometimes the button labels don’t fit right on Linux but look find on Windows. Can you provide a small, runnable example of what you are having problems with?

And are they the same version (or close) of wxPython on each platform? There were some sizer differences between 2.8 and 2.9 for example.
