Question

this is my code: http://pastebin.com/WwZri3e3

id like to know how i could implement a text box on the right side of each label
First name
surname
and username.

the wxpython documentation is very poor and ive tried everything i could in order to get a better learning experience with wxpython, and at the moment im just swinging through the air.

i find that studying others code helps alot more than reading the documentation.

can anyone provide some insight? thanks!

Answer 1

i typically make a horizontal boxsizer

def addWithLabel(parent,label,wxCtrl):
       sz_h1 = wx.BoxSizer(wx.HORIZONTAL)
       txt = wx.StaticText(parent,-1,label)
       sz_h1.Add(txt)
       sz_h1.Add(wxCtrl)
       return sz_h1

my_vertical_sizer.Add(addWithLabel(my_parent,"Some Label:",wx.TextCtrl(my_parent,-1)))

alternatively you could add your gridbagsizer to your boxsizer instead of the other way around …
