 \section{\class{wxWizard}}\label{wxwizard}
 
 wxWizard is the central class for implementing `wizard-like' dialogs. These
-dialogs are mostly familiar to Windows users and are nothing else but a
-sequence of `pages' each of them displayed inside a dialog which has the
-buttons to pass to the next (and previous) pages.
+dialogs are mostly familiar to Windows users and are nothing other than a
+sequence of `pages', each displayed inside a dialog which has the
+buttons to navigate to the next (and previous) pages.
 
 The wizards are typically used to decompose a complex dialog into several
 simple steps and are mainly useful to the novice users, hence it is important
 to keep them as simple as possible.
 
-To show a wizard dialog, you must first create an object of wxWizard class
-using \helpref{Create}{wxwizardcreate} function. Then you should add all pages
-you want the wizard to show and call \helpref{RunWizard}{wxwizardrunwizard}.
-Finally, don't forget to call {\tt wizard->Destroy()}.
+To show a wizard dialog, you must first create an instance of the wxWizard class
+using either the non-default constructor or a default one followed by call to the 
+\helpref{Create}{wxwizardcreate} function. Then you should add all pages you
+want the wizard to show and call \helpref{RunWizard}{wxwizardrunwizard}.
+Finally, don't forget to call {\tt wizard->Destroy()}, otherwise your application will hang on exit due to an undestroyed window.

+
+Page area sizer has a minimal size that is the maximum of several values. First,
+all pages (or other objects) added to the sizer. Second, all pages reachable
+by repeatedly applying 
+\helpref{wxWizardPage::GetNext}{wxwizardpagegetnext} to

+be increased to accommodate the bitmap height. Fifth and finally, wizards are

+beyond the minimal size. If {\tt wxRESIZE\_BORDER} was passed to constructor, user
+can resize wizard and consequently the page area (but not make it smaller than the
+minimal size).
+
+It is recommended to add the first page to the page area sizer. For simple wizards,
+this will enlarge the wizard to fit the biggest page. For non-linear wizards,
+the first page of every separate chain should be added. Caller-specified size
+can be accomplished using \helpref{wxSizer::SetMinSize}{wxsizersetminsize}.

+will be added to the control border in order to space page controls ten points from the dialog
+border and non-page controls.
