wx.StaticLine Full Width

wxPython Users
1

I added wx.StaticLine widgets to the four columns in the wx.FlexGridSizer.
There is a gap at both ends of each horizontal line. I read the class
description in the wxWidgets docs, and tried various layout options but I
cannot generate a continuous horizontal line.

   What have I missed?

TIA,

Rich

Set the "border" property to 0 for all borders

Horst,

   It is, by default. Well, the border size is "0" by default. I just checked
"wxAll" for each of the lines and it makes no difference. I also tried
adjusting the size of each staticLine, but that adjusts the column width
without closing the gap.

   On another project I did not have this problem, but when I look at this
other project in wxGlade I cannot see the difference in static lines.

Thanks,

Rich

Haven't seen what screen layout you are trying to get to. On most of mine I have a boxSizer set to e.g. the wx.Panel or wx.Frame and in it I add one or more FlexGridSizer and if I want a staticLine to separate things I do:

parent.AddWindow(self.staticLine1, 0, border=2, flag=wx.ALL | wx.EXPAND)

The parent here is the boxSizer.

Hope this helps

Another idea, did you set the hgap property on the flexgridsizer?

Thanks,

Rich

See you

Werner,

   Bingo! That was the problem. I had not made the connection before. An
excellent lesson learned.

Many thanks -- thread closed,

Rich
