wxNotebook size

I want to add a control Panel on the left side.
In this Panel I want a Notebook filling the whole available space.
Unfortunately the notebook remains very small, too small for placing
controls inside.
What can I do that the notebook always fills the whole available area,
independent of the parents size?

class NavPanel(wxPanel):

    def __init__(self, parent, ID, doodle):
        wxPanel.__init__(self, parent, -1)

        self.notebook = wxNotebook(self, -1, style=wxNB_BOTTOM)

        win = wxPanel(self, -1)

        self.notebook.AddPage(win, "Config")

Thanks,

Markus

The same way you would make any window fill all vailable space of its parent. There are some options:

1. Use an EVT_SIZE handler on the parent, something like this:

  def OnSize(self, evt):
    self.child.SetSize(self.GetSize)

2. Use sizers to accomplish the same thing.

Hi,

I think I've found a bug in lib/buttons.py. Basically, it seems like I have to explicitly Refresh the buttons when changing their Enabled state. This script demonstrates it:

Thanks, I've checked in a fix.
