Sorry I couldn't respond sooner. I didn't run this since my email
simply put the file as text in the body rather than as an attachement.
Can you resend it as a zip file?

However just by looking at it I can tell it will not work properly:
The sizes are absolute.

I totally agree, and actually the sizers should be done in boa. When I
get your version as zip file I will use the way you did it for the
sizers. However at present time boa will not allow non-absolute sizes
for elements, therefore that needs to be done by hand, and opening it
up with the inspector will mess everything up. Also I don't see
support for wx.ID_CANCEL and other stock buttons in Boa, this would
have to be done by hand as well.

I tried looking into the inspector code to allow relative sizes, but
it is a little over my head. If Ryaan can tell me where to look for
the sizing stuff then it would make things MUCH easier.
