\section{\class{wxSizer}}\label{wxsizer}
wxSizer is the abstract base class used for laying out subwindows in a window. You
-cannot use wxSizer directly; instead, you will have to use \helpref{wxBoxSizer}{wxboxsizer},
-\helpref{wxStaticBoxSizer}{wxstaticboxsizer} or \helpref{wxNotebookSizer}{wxnotebooksizer}.
+cannot use wxSizer directly; instead, you will have to use one of the sizer
+classes derived from it. Currently there are \helpref{wxBoxSizer}{wxboxsizer},
+\helpref{wxStaticBoxSizer}{wxstaticboxsizer},
+\helpref{wxNotebookSizer}{wxnotebooksizer}, \helpref{wxGridSizer}{wxgridsizer}
+and \helpref{wxFlexGridSizer}{wxflexgridsizer}.
The layout algorithm used by sizers in wxWindows is closely related to layout
in other GUI toolkits, such as Java's AWT, the GTK toolkit or the Qt toolkit. It is

of which are supposed to change their size with the sizer. Then the two stretchable windows would get a
value of 1 each to make them grow and shrink equally with the sizer's horizontal dimension.}
-\docparam{flag}{This parameter can be used to set a number of flags which can be combined using
-the binary OR operator |. Two main behaviours are defined using these flags. One is the border
-around a window: the {\it border} parameter determines the border width whereas the flags given here
-determine where the border may be (wxTOP, wxBOTTOM, wxLEFT, wxRIGHT or wxALL). The other flags
-determine the child window's behaviour if the size of the sizer changes. However this is not - in contrast to
-the {\it option} flag - in the main orientation, but in the respectively other orientation. So
-if you created a wxBoxSizer with the wxVERTICAL option, these flags will be relevant if the
-sizer changes its horizontal size. A child may get resized to completely fill out the new size (using
-either wxGROW or wxEXPAND), it may get proportionally resized (wxSHAPED), it may get centered (wxALIGN\_CENTER
-or wxALIGN\_CENTRE) or it may get aligned to either side (wxALIGN\_LEFT and wxALIGN\_TOP are set to 0
-and thus represent the default, wxALIGN\_RIGHT and wxALIGN\_BOTTOM have their obvious meaning).
-With proportional resize, a child may also be centered in the main orientation using
-wxALIGN\_CENTER\_VERTICAL (same as wxALIGN\_CENTRE\_VERTICAL) and wxALIGN\_CENTER\_HORIZONTAL
-(same as wxALIGN\_CENTRE\_HORIZONTAL) flags.}
