Ok, this is the cause of the problem.
(it crashes because wxPython then deletes the sizer twice when the frame
  is destroyed)

The code that limits the sizers that you can choose only applies
to sizer items. I'll fix this as soon as possible.
Will reply back here once it's fixed.

Thanks for the report.

You should be able to just delete the one of the two x.SetSizer(y)
lines in the generated source before you open it in the Designer.

Thanks,
