Layout problem in wx.Wizard #1285

Open tvhdeeptho opened 5 years ago

tvhdeeptho commented 5 years ago

Operating system: Fedora 29 wxPython version & source: installed with pip3; wxPython 4.0.6 Python version & source: stock python3.7. but problem also occurs with python2

The wizard example code as found on https://wiki.wxwidgets.org/WxWizard fails to properly display all pages except the first one: large text is truncated. The code below is a slightly modified version to make it run under python3. The original example code has the same problem under python2.

Attached are screenshots of page1 (ok) and page2 (clipped). The code runs fine if I comment the setFont call. A similar issue was reported on stackoverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52043176/wxpython-statictext-setfont-in-dialog-causing-layout-error but someone there reported not having the problem. So it may have something to do with the underlying environment This is what is installed on my computer: wxGTK3-3.0.4-4.fc29.x86_64 wxGTK3-gl-3.0.4-4.fc29.x86_64 gtk3-3.24.1-3.fc29.x86_64

page1 page2

# Put code sample here

import wx

import wx.wizard as wiz

import wx.adv as wiz import wx.lib.inspection

def makePageTitle(wizPg, title): sizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx.VERTICAL) wizPg.SetSizer(sizer) title = wx.StaticText(wizPg, -1, title) title.SetFont(wx.Font(18, wx.SWISS, wx.NORMAL, wx.BOLD)) sizer.Add(title, 0, wx.ALIGN_CENTRE|wx.ALL, 5) sizer.Add(wx.StaticLine(wizPg, -1), 0, wx.EXPAND|wx.ALL, 5) return sizer

class TitledPage(wiz.WizardPageSimple): def init(self, parent, title): wiz.WizardPageSimple.init(self, parent) self.sizer = makePageTitle(self, title)

app = wx.PySimpleApp() wizard = wiz.Wizard(None, -1, 'Simple Wizard') page1 = TitledPage(wizard, 'Page 1') page2 = TitledPage(wizard, 'Page 2') wiz.WizardPageSimple.Chain(page1, page2) wizard.FitToPage(page1) wx.lib.inspection.InspectionTool().Show() wizard.RunWizard(page1) wizard.Destroy() app.MainLoop()

This issue has been mentioned on Discuss wxPython. There might be relevant details there:

There is a wxWidgets issue which appears to reference the underlying problem: https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/issues/19053

The wxWidgets' issue refers to it being related to bold font, but in the wxPython cases it seems to be related to changing the font size.

The last comment says "Unfortunately I won't have time to do anything about this before 3.2.0, sorry."
