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.

The wx.FIXED_MINSIZE +flag was added that will cause the sizer to use the old behaviour in +that it will *not* call the window's 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. + +Related to the above, when controls and some other window types are +created either the size passed to the constructor, or their "best +size" if an explicit size was not passed in, is set as the window's +minimal size. For non top-level windows that hasn't meant much in the +past, but now the sizers are sensitive to the window's minimal size. +The key point to understand here is that it is no longer the window's +size it has when added to the sizer that matters, but its minimal +size. So you might have some issues to iron out if you create a +control without a size and then set its size to something before +adding it to the sizer. Since it's minimal size is probably not the +size you set then the sizer will appear to be misbehaving. The fix is +to either set the size when calling the window's constructor, or to +reset the min size by calling SetSizeHints. You can call SetSizeHints +at anytime to change the minsize of a window, just call the sizer's +Layout method to redistribute the controls as needed. + Added new MaskedEditControl code from Will Sadkin.

LONG LIVE OGL! (Oops, sorry. A bit of my dramatic side +leaked out there...) The wx.ogl module has been deprecated in favor +of the new Python port of the OGL library located at wx.lib.ogl +contributed by Pierre Hjälm.
