There's not a real good, general way to do it.

You can use the wxPython sizers directly - but that's a bit of work to 
learn how sizers work, and how they can be used (and to add the relevant 
code to your application). There are some of the samples / tools that do 
this (e.g. findfiles).

There is a *simple* form of relative sizer implemented which will work 
for *some*  *simple* cases; to use it you should add

from PythonCard import simpleSizer

to the head of your main source file, and then in your on_initialize 
handler add a line

        simpleSizer.autoSizer(self)

Give it a try - but it does only work in some cases ....
