wxPython: Making a fixed-height panel

Question

I have a wx.Frame, in which I have a vertical BoxSizer with two items, a TextCtrl and a custom widget. I want the custom widget to have a fixed pixel height, while the TextCtrl will expand normally to fill the window. What should I do?

Answer 1

Got it.

When creating the widget, use a size of (-1,100), where "100" is the height you want. Apparently the "-1" is a sort of "None" in this context.

When adding the widget to the sizer, use a proportion of 0, like this: self.sizer.Add(self.timeline,0,wx.EXPAND)
