The name Layoutf is choosen because of the similarity with C's printf function. Quick Example: lc = Layoutf('t=t#1;l=r10#2;r!100;h%h50#1', (self, self.panel)) is equivalent to lc = wxLayoutContraints() lc.top.SameAs(self, wxTop) lc.left.SameAs(self.panel, wxRight, 10) lc.right.Absolute(100) lc.height.PercentOf(self, wxHeight, 50) Usage: You can give a constraint string to the Layoutf constructor, or use the 'pack' method. The following are equivalent: lc = Layoutf('t=t#1;l=r#2;r!100;h%h50#1', (self, self.panel)) and lc = Layoutf() lc.pack('t=t#1;l=r#2;r!100;h%h50#1', (self, self.panel)) Besides 'pack' there's also 'debug_pack' which does not set constraints, but prints traditional wxLayoutConstraint calls to stdout. The calls to the Layoutf constructor and pack methods have the following argument list: (constraint_string, objects_tuple) Constraint String syntax: Constraint directives are separated by semi-colons. You generally (always?) need four directives to completely describe a subwindow's location. A single directive has either of the following forms: 1. [numerical argument] for example r!100 -> lc.right.Absolute(100) ) and w* -> lc.width.AsIs() 2. [numerical argument] # for example t_10#2 (lc.top.Below(, 10) 3. [numerical argument]# for example w%h50#2 ( lc.width.PercentOf(, wxHeight, 50) and t=b#1 ( lc.top.SameAs(, wxBottom) ) Which one you need is defined by the type. The following take type 1 (no object to compare with): '!': 'Absolute', '?': 'Unconstrained', '*': 'AsIs' These take type 2 (need to be compared with another object) '<': 'LeftOf', '>': 'RightOf', '^': 'Above', '_': 'Below' These take type 3 (need to be compared to another object attribute) '=': 'SameAs', '%': 'PercentOf' For all types, the letter can be any of 't': 'top', 'l': 'left', 'b': 'bottom', 'r': 'right', 'h': 'height', 'w': 'width', 'x': 'centreX', 'y': 'centreY' If the operation takes an (optional) numerical argument, place it in [numerical argument]. For type 3 directives, the letter can be any of 't': 'wxTop', 'l': 'wxLeft', 'b': 'wxBottom' 'r': 'wxRight', 'h': 'wxHeight', 'w': 'wxWidth', 'x': 'wxCentreX', 'y': 'wxCentreY' Note that these are the same letters as used for , so you'll only need to remember one set. Finally, the object whose attribute is refered to, is specified by #, where is the 1-based (stupid, I know, but I've gotten used to it) index of the object in the objects_tuple argument. Bugs: Not entirely happy about the logic in the order of arguments after the character. Not all wxLayoutConstraint methods are included in the syntax. However, the type 3 directives are generally the most used. Further excuse: wxWindows layout constraints are at the time of this writing not documented.
