Sorry, I previously forgot to join the file…
I
cannot manage to draw vertical static lines onto a panel (see code) : while position and size can be modified, the line shows always horizontally ! Please, who can help and tell what am I doing wrong ?

Maybe you should give your vertical line a bit more room than just 20 pixels:
Nonononono:
sl1=wx.StaticLine(self.panel, -1, wx.Point(25, 25), size=(-1, 300),style=wx.LI_VERTICAL)
And you should avoid using absolute positioning and sizes… use wx.Sizer and let your window decide how fat/long your line should be.

The size (300,2) means 300 pixels wide and 2 pixels tall. If you want a vertical line, you should reverse those to (2,300).

Thank you, I discovered this due to infinity77’s answer, although this was not as precise as yours ! Nevertheless, I think this approach (size=(wide, tall)) inconvenient, since it depends upon a convention over display’s orientation… The (length, thickness) should be more appropriate to describe a line, don’t you think ?

Probably, but then a standard wx.Size couldn't be used.
BTW, you could also do it using sizers in which case you don't specify the size at all. See attached, I use wx.lib.sized_controls but you could also do it by defining the sizers your self.
You can find more details on the Phoenix documentation, note that not everything applies to classic but I still think there are easier to follow then the older docs.
