+The layout algorithm used by sizers in wxWindows closely related to layout
in other GUI toolkits, such as Java's AWT, the GTK toolkit or the Qt toolkit. It is
based upon the idea of the individual subwindows reporting their minimal required
size and their ability to get stretched if the size of the parent window has changed.
This will most often mean, that the programmer does not set the original size of

+the dialog in the beginning, rather the top-most sizer will get queried and it will
then query its children. Its children can be normal windows or other sizers, so that
a hierachy of sizer can be constructed. Note that sizer are not derived from wxWindows
and thus do not interfere with tab ordering and require very little resources compared
the standard font as well as the overall design of Motif widgets requires more space than
on Windows, the intial dialog size will automatically be bigger on Motif than on Windows.

+derive the class from \tt{wxPySizer} in order to get Python-aware
+capabilities for the various virtual methods.}

Adds the {\it window} to the sizer. As wxSizer itself is an abstract class, the parameters
have no meaning in the wxSizer class itself, but as there currently is only one class

Removes a child from the sizer. {\it window} is the window to be removed, {\it sizer} the
equivalent sizer and {\it nth} is the position of the child in the sizer, typically 0 for

This is commonly done in the constructor of the window itself, see sample in the description
of \helpref{wxBoxSizer}{wxboxsizer} if the window is resizable (as many dialogs under Unix and
frames on probably all platforms).
