Hi Gentlemen,

I have an error, which was non existant when i used wxpython 2.8.7.1. When i upgraded to 2.8.10.1, basically the GUI got messed up.I am using Python 2.52 environment.

The error seems to be from the fact that the parent, in this case
MyFrame(wx.aui.AuiMDIParentFrame), is the default frame, which means i did not have to have a wx.window passed as the argument, while, auimanager seems to look for a panel to attach too? Please take a look at the self running code below. Any comment is appreciated.

Thank you very much

import wx
import wx.aui

        child.Show()
        
    def GetStartPosition(self):
        self.x = self.x + 20
        x = self.x
        pt = self.ClientToScreen(wx.Point(0, 0))
        return wx.Point(pt.x + x, pt.y + x)

        sizer.Add(p, 1, wx.EXPAND)
        self.SetSizer(sizer)
        wx.CallAfter(self.Layout)

Looks like a bug in wxPython version 2.8.10.1
Can you go back to version 2.8.7.1 ?

Hi Vega,

Yes, i should be able too. Where do we highlight this 'bug', to get it fixed. There are some new rendered features in the new wxpython release that would prove good edition to GUI development. Anyone have experience highlighting these issues to the right channel?

Thank you very much
