Sizer problems inwxAUI

[JonPan]

I have been trying to use a sizer with a number of controls on it managed within one pane of a multi-pane display.

I create a wxPanel with a sizer on it, add controls then add the panel to the AUIManager. The controls seem to be sized but are not respecting the bar at the top of the pane, they are justified all the way to the top they are also covered by what looks like the background of the pane. I hope I am just missing some settings but I cannot find any examples or comments of similar problems as a guide.

below is code which demostrates the problem and based on the simplest modification of the sample code from wxWidgets site. I put the whole app code in so you can compile and see the results, sorry if that is too much.

wxWidgets 2.8.10

Any thoughts?


Thanks in advance

Jon
