Why do wxPytyhon widgets look diferent after Py2Exe creates EXE?

This is largely why I switched to pyInstaller.
This program does about the same thing as py2exe, but (IMO) in a cleaner
way for the programmer. Also, it will use the default client look instead
of overwriting it as py2exe seems to like doing.

The biggie for me was how easy it was
in pyInstaller to make a single .exe that contained everything the user
could ever need to run it, where py2exe liked leaving dependancies. Though
I suppose that this might be largely why my 30k wxpy script compiles into
a 6.5M executable.

[wxpython-users] Why do wxPytyhon widgets
look diferent after Py2Exe creates EXE?

`When I run my program in from IDLE the GUI has all
the characteristics of my

WinXP

OS, the rounded corners on buttons, the highlighted of buttons when you

hover etc.

After I use Py2Exe (I’ve done it with from the command line, used PyBuilder,

and GUI2Exe.)

The Frames look correct, but the widgets inside look vintage Win95. The

buttons are rectangles,

the wx.SizerBoxes are square, not rounded, the highlighting when hovering

doesn’t work.

I don’t know if this is a Py2Exe question or a wxPython question, seems
like

it’s a Py2Exe

issue that washes into wxPython.

Just thought I’d try you guys first.
