When I scale the window in my wxPython app, the elements remain the same size, so if I shrink it, some of them are "cut off" from view. How do I make everything scale with the window? Is it even possible in wx?
You use sizers to control layout in wxPython, including scaling widgets.
Here is a tutorial:
