You'll probably do better if you email the wxPython user's group for these kinds of things. But I'll take a shot at it anyway. Looking at the GridBagSizer's docs, I found it has the following method: CheckForIntersection. You could use that to make sure there are no intersections and then handle it when they occur. See the docs for more info: http://www.wxpython.org/docs/api/wx.GridBagSizer-class.html The mailing list is here: http://wxpython.org/maillist.php Without knowing what your layout scheme is or how you add the widgets to the sizer, it's difficult to give a more specific answer. Since you say it's a dialog, you might want to consider using a simpler sizer or a group of simpler sizers nested in one another. There's an entry on the wiki that might be helpful to you as well. http://wiki.wxpython.org/UsingSizers Hope that helps. Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
