#31 Can't reposition widgets in resourceEditor on Linux

[Anonymous]

I am running

Linux
Python 2.3.3
wxPython 2.4.2
PythonCard 0.7.3.1

When I run the resourceEditor, and add a simple button
to the blank canvas created, I can't drag it to a new
location. I can't re-position any widget. Adding any
widget to the canvas puts it in the top-left corner,
with no ability to reposition.

I tried the same versions of everything, except OS was
Windows XP Pro, and everything worked fine, so it must
be Linux specific?

I see this too on version 0.7 (this is installed because it's still
the latest Gentoo stable ebuild).

This also happens with boa constructor so i guess it's not a
pythoncard problem. Probably wxPython or wxWidgets has
the problem.

Take a look at bug 868615 on boa-constructor. Author
believes that it's a wxGTK+ issue. Similar report for label
but work-around is given.

The problem is mostly likely that you are using a GTK2 build of
wxWidgets/wxPython rather than a GTK1 build. There is known bug in
wxWidgets, but there is no workaround that I know of other than using a
GTK1 build.
