+<html><body><h2>Sized Controls</h2>
+SizedControls is an addon library that attempts to simplify the
+creation of sizer-based layouts. It adds the following classes:
+
+<h3>SizedPanel</h3>
+
+This class automatically creates its own sizer (a vertical box sizer
+by default) and automatically adds its children to the sizer. You can
+change the SizedPanel's sizer type by calling
+panel.SetSizerType(\"type\", [args]), where valid types are
+\"horizontal\", \"vertical\", \"form\" (a 2-col flex grid sizer), and
+\"grid\". Args include \"cols\" and \"rows\" attributes for
+grids. This class also applies control borders that adhere to the
+native platform's Human Interface Guidelines (HIG) on Win, GTK and
+Mac.
+
+<h3>SizedFrame and SizedDialog</h3>
+
+These classes automatically setup a SizedPanel which is appropriately
+positioned and given appropriate borders in accordance with the
+platform's HIGs.
+
+<p>Since controls are added to the parent's sizer upon creation, you
+don't need to use sizer.Add or even create sizers yourself. You just
+use SetSizerType() to change the sizer you want to use, and
+control.SetSizerProps() to change the sizer properties of the
+control. So as a result, code that used to look like this:
+
+<table bgcolor=\"#EFEFEF\"><tr><td><pre>
+... wx.Dialog init code...
+
+panel = wx.Panel(self, -1)
+b1 = wx.Button(panel, -1)
+b2 = wx.Button(panel, -1)
+t1 = wx.TextCtrl(panel, -1)
+b3 = wx.Button(panel, -1)
+
+sizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx.HORIZONTAL)
+sizer.Add(b1, 0, wx.ALL, 6)
+sizer.Add(b2, 0, wx.ALL, 6)
+sizer.Add(t1, 0, wx.EXPAND | wx.ALL, 6)
+sizer.Add(b3, 0, wx.ALL, 6)
+panel.SetSizer(sizer)
+
+dlgSizer = wx.BoxSizer()
+dlgSizer.Add(panel, 1, wx.EXPAND)
+self.SetSizer(dlgSizer)
+self.SetAutoLayout(True)
+
+... rest of dialog ...</pre>
+</td></tr></table>
+
+would now look like this:
+
+<table bgcolor=\"#EFEFEF\"><tr><td><pre>
+... wx.Dialog init code...
+
+panel = self.GetContentsPane()
+panel.SetSizerType(\"horizontal\")
+
+b1 = wx.Button(panel, -1)
+b2 = wx.Button(panel, -1)
+
+t1 = wx.TextCtrl(panel, -1)
+t1.SetSizerProps(expand=True)
+
+b3 = wx.Button(panel, -1)
+
+... rest of dialog ...</pre>
+</td></tr></table>
+
+and the latter example will adhere to HIG spacing guidelines on all platforms,
+unlike the former example. Please check the demos for more complete and sophisticated examples of SizedControls
+in action.

+<tr>
+<td><i>expand</i></td> <td>True/False</td>
+<td>Whether or not the control should grow to fill free space if
+free space is available.</td>
+</tr>
+
+<tr>
+<td><i>proportion</i></td> <td>Number (typically 0-10)</td>
+<td>How much of the free space the control should take up. Note that this value is
+<i>relative</i> to other controls, so a proportion of 2 means take up
+'twice as much' space as controls with a proportion of 1.</td>
+</tr>
+
+<tr>
+<td><i>halign</i> <td>"left", "center", "centre", "right"</td>
+<td>Determines horizontal alignment of control.</td>
+</tr>
+
+<tr>
+<td><i>valign</i> <td>"top", "center", "centre", "bottom"</td>
+<td>Determines vertical alignment of control.</td>
+</tr>
+
+<tr>
+<td><i>border</i> <td>Tuple: ([<i>dirs</i>], integer)</td>
+<td>Specifies amount of border padding to apply to specified directions. </br>
+Example: (["left", "right"], 6) would add six pixels to left and right borders. </br>
+Note that, unfortunately,
+it is not currently possible to assign different border sizes to each direction.</td>
+</tr>
+
+<tr>
+<td><i>minsize</i> <td>One of the following string values: "fixed", "adjust"</td>
+<td>Determines whether or not the minsize can be updated when the control's best size changes.</td>
+</tr>
