 **[Changed in 2.5.1.6]** wx.ADJUST_MINSIZE is now the default
 behaviour for window items in sizers.  This means that the item's

+GetMinSize and/or GetBestSize will be called when calculating layout
+and the return value from that will be used for the minimum size.  The
+wx.FIXED_MINSIZE flag was added that will cause the sizer to *not*
+call window methods to determine the new best size, instead the
+minsize that the window had when added to the sizer (or the size the
+window was created with) will always be used.  When a window is added
+to a sizer it's initial size, if any, is set as the window's minimal
+size using SetSizeHints if there isn't already a minimal size.
