64 | There are several types of window that are directly controlled by the window | |
65 | manager (such as MS Windows, or the Motif Window Manager). Frames and dialogs | |
66 | are similar in wxWidgets, but only dialogs may be modal. | |

124 | @section page_class_cat_winlayout Window Layout | |
125 | ||
126 | There are two different systems for laying out windows (and dialogs in | |
127 | particular). One is based upon so-called sizers and it requires less typing, | |
128 | thinking and calculating and will in almost all cases produce dialogs looking | |
129 | equally well on all platforms, the other is based on so-called constraints and | |
130 | is deprecated, though still available. | |
131 | ||
132 | Related Overviews: @ref overview_sizer, @ref overview_constraints | |

140 | @li wxGridBagSizer: Another grid sizer that lets you specify the cell an item | |
141 | is in, and items can span rows and/or columns. | |
142 | @li wxBoxSizer: A sizer for laying out windows in a row or column | |
143 | @li wxStaticBoxSizer: Same as wxBoxSizer, but with a surrounding static box | |
144 | @li wxWrapSizer: A sizer which wraps its child controls as size permits | |
145 | ||
