SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hello,

Is it possible to add stretchable spacers to sizers in the Boa IDE?

Thanks.

Yes, use the second icon in the sizer collection editor window, it has 
two items sizer and spacer.

Hi Alexei and Werner,

Werner, he's referring to the AddStretchSpacer method.

Looking at SizerCompanions.py, I've added Stretch Spacers before, but
commented out the code.
I can't figure out why at the moment as it seems to work fine.

Anyway AddStretchSpacer will be in the next release unless I find a problem.

Cheers,
Riaan.

Hi Werner and Riaan,

Yes, I'd like to be able to add stretchable space  to a sizer via a
call to AddStretchSpacer. I've also seen it commented in the Boa
source code.

Can you suggest an alternative to calling AddStretchSpacer?

Basicly, I have a panel at the bottom of a dialog. I've placed a
BoxSizer into it and I want to position an "OK" button on the right
side of the panel.

By the way, what the ETA for the new release of Boa Constructor?

Thanks,
Alexei

You can just set wx.ALIGN_RIGHT in the Flag property of the sizer item.

There are a few new unfinished features I need to complete first and a
few bugs to fix.

I hope there will be a new release relatively soon, but can't give a
date yet, sorry.

Cheers,
Riaan.

Thanks for your suggestion, Riaan.

I first tried setting wx.ALIGN_RIGHT for the 'OK' button, but it
didn't work. I tried setting it for the parent panel, and it worked.
Now I'm wondering if I did the right thing.

Sorry if my questions seem to be basic ones, it's just that I haven't
mastered sizers well enough yet.
