Wxpython not working same on linux and windows

I have this file https://gist.github.com/yasoob/1a80efe0b2ae15755a67 which is basically a translator app written in wxpython. What happens is that it is working properly on linux (ubuntu) but when i run it on windows the alignment goes wrong all over. Another file https://gist.github.com/yasoob/a840c532c5efccf521fb which is almost the same but does not have a status bar and a menu bar works like a charm on both windows and linux. Any ideas why this is happening. I have spent whole day in making this app but now it is not working :frowning: Urgent help would be must appreciated.

You spent a whole day–and it is still not working?! That’s it, I’m out of here! ;D

If you want help from the forum, generally you should:

a) be more specific than “it goes wrong all over”

b) make a small runnable sample Your sample is small, but isn’t runnable without removing references to modules we won’t have, like goslate.

This said, why not try adding this line at the location indicated by the arrow:

            #### Panel sizer set ####
            backP.SetSizer(vertSizer)

----------> backP.Layout()

            self.Show()

There definitely are differences between Windows, Linux, and Mac in terms of details like this. It is not 100.0% cross-platform, in that sense (though in the spirit of things, it is).
