wxPython Geometry problem

Question

I'm trying to get the button to be right of the label. I set the tuple and am still not sure why it covers the label.

Also is there a good tutorial available on wxpython geometry?

import wx
import wx.lib.agw.gradientbutton as GB

def GetRoundBitmap( w, h, r ):
    maskColor = wx.Color(0,0,0)
    shownColor = wx.Color(5,5,5)
    b = wx.EmptyBitmap(w,h)
    dc = wx.MemoryDC(b)
    dc.SetBrush(wx.Brush(maskColor))
    dc.DrawRectangle(0,0,w,h)
    dc.SetBrush(wx.Brush(shownColor))
    dc.SetPen(wx.Pen(shownColor))
    dc.DrawRoundedRectangle(0,0,w,h,r)
    dc.SelectObject(wx.NullBitmap)
    b.SetMaskColour(maskColor)
    return b

def GetRoundShape( w, h, r ):
    return wx.RegionFromBitmap( GetRoundBitmap(w,h,r) )

class FancyFrame(wx.Frame):
    def __init__(self):

        self.button = GB.GradientButton(self,label="button")
        self.label.SetBackgroundColour("#9e9e9e")
        geo.Add(self.button, (0,1))

    def SetRoundShape(self, event=None):
        w, h = self.GetSizeTuple()
        self.SetShape(GetRoundShape( w,h, 10 ) )


    def OnPaint(self, event):
        dc = wx.PaintDC(self)
        dc = wx.GCDC(dc)
        w, h = self.GetSizeTuple()
        r = 10
        dc.SetPen( wx.Pen("#000000", width = 4 ) )
        dc.SetBrush( wx.Brush("#9e9e9e") )
        dc.DrawRoundedRectangle( 0,0,w,h,r )

    def On_Esc(self, event):
        """quit if user press Esc"""
        if event.GetKeyCode() == 27 : #27 is Esc
            self.Close(force=True)
        else:
            event.Skip()

     def OnMouse(self, event):
        """implement dragging"""
        if not event.Dragging():
            self._dragPos = None
            return
        self.CaptureMouse()
        if not self._dragPos:
            self._dragPos = event.GetPosition()
        else:
            pos = event.GetPosition()
            displacement = self._dragPos - pos
            self.SetPosition( self.GetPosition() - displacement )



app = wx.App()
f = FancyFrame()
app.MainLoop()

You forgot to set FancyFrame to have the given layout sizer.

In other words you need to add one line to the end of your FancyFrame 's __init__ method.

self.SetSizerAndFit(geo)
