I'm using the wxListCtrl in the ICON style. On Windows this
works nicely with the exception the the icons are sorted by file
name and not with the directories first. I'm guessing I need to
implement a sort function but a style flag that does this would
be really great.
The real problem is on GTK. The icons are spaced in columns that
vary on the width of the filename so a long filename makes that
column of icons very wide. On windows, the long filenames are
ignored in the spacing and are trucated with ...
Any plans to beautify the icon layout in GTK or is it limited
by the native dialog?

On wxGTK it is currently a generic widget so it could probably be changed. Please enter a wxWindows feature request (or a patch!) for it.

I have worked a little on a python class that emulates the MSW
behaviour. If that is of interest I can provide it.
