I'm familiar with such layout system, but for me it's not so convenient as automatic sizers in wxWidgets and at least wxBoxSizer is as simple as it could be.

MFC's layout system depends on the initial layout, wx's doesn't depends on the initial layout, in this case wx wins.

Hi,
So what is the problem?
Either don't do it manually, or simplify the design.

I'm glad to see it in wxWidgets.

I think what you are proposing is purely aestetic and will not be put in the library.

Also more human/programmer friendly.

I also think it will not be put in the lib.

Why do you think that?
Is there a reason you are not satisfied with wxWidgets layout scheme?

When building UI with codes manually, sometimes nested sizers become a little deeper.
It's not a big deal, but I think for most cases a simpler sizer is enough and more human friendly.

For example, if you want a button or label to adjust to a different text length in an i18n application, you will soon experience the limitations of MFC. The sizers in wxWidgets give you full control over such issues. Yes, with MFC's sizer, the position & size of a control are only adjusted accordin...

Are you stating the fact or asking the question? stating a fact Also - what does MFC has to do with wxWidgets/sizers? As I can see, MFC's sizer is simpler and more flexible than wxWidgets' sizer. But I'm not sure, so for open discussion. If MFC's sizer is totally better than wxWidgets' sizer, I thi...

Firstly, when providing a code to reproduce on wxTrac, you are supposed to use a minimal patch against the most appropriate sample, in this case probably "dialogs". Fine Secondly, when the explanation for the issue is known, you should include it in the ticket so that other people do not need spend...

It seems that when you want to change the position of the dialog, this code path gets executed https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/blob/30637ad3b60d9baf74d130dd34c7d8108cc1bb1d/src/msw/filedlg.cpp#L455 which results into the old style dialog.

Can you try BestSize() [1] to change its size?

BestSize helps for default size, but no help for 4 for more panes horizontally.

wx_aui_dock.png It easy to be done y drag & drop manually, how to do it programmatically? With the method below, the panes are side by side horizontally, but can not be resized manullay and all panes have the same width. The demand is every pane can be resized manually andc can have specific width ...

Or you can switch to wxDataViewListCtrl.
However this might be an overkill for such a small feature...

I've played in samples, it's amazing.
I just don't know there is such a nice control.

Thank you very much.

The underlying native control probably has that feature. Try researching if that's true, and if yes, how to enable it. Otherwise the only idea i could think of would be a small 2 pixel high wxPanel as child of the listctrl. What OS? CListCtrl in MFC can do it, because custom draw can be done after ...

What do you mean?
Can you do a screenshot and post some code?

When drag a item in wxListCtrl, show a hint (red line in image) for drop position

With event.Skip() in OnPaint, custom draw in OnPaint will always before the control drawing itself, as a result, the custom drawings will be overwritten.
