problem displaying a wx based software on windows

wxPython Users
1

hello,
I happened to run one of my linux based wxpython apps on windows today.
I have used gridbag layouts to create the gui.
I use gnome desktop for my development.
I am utterly surprised and also very disappointed.
the controls (widgets ) look completely out of place and I can't
figure out what must have gone wrong?
can any one tell me if this is regular and what should I do to correct this?
yes in a couple of mdi child frames I have also used horizontal box
layouts for buttons.
any more details needed?
regards.

In what way? Layout or look and feel? Does the wxPython demo have the same problems on Windows? Which version of wxPython are you using? Which version of Windows?

and I can't

Yes please. It would be even better if you could provide a small runnable sample that demonstrates the problem if needed, or if it is just the look then small screenshots of your app on the two platforms.

It would be nice if you could send screenshots of both the linux version
and the Windows so we could see what you mean. Make sure they're png or
jpg files that are small. Also, which version of Windows and wxPython?
