…And panels provide a way to easily separate areas of the frame by color and border (otherwise you’d have to draw that yourself using wx.DC). And they allow things like radiobuttons to be considered separate. And you can make up a custom class in a module, with everything laid out nicely on that panel, and just drop it into a frame at the location you want without having to consider the other widgets on that frame.

Conceptually, I’m not understanding what panels are used for. Most examples in tutorials where panels are used, could just as easily have been accomplished by just using sizers, I think. I’m sure there’s a good use for panels, I’m just trying to wrap my brain around it.
