You could certainly see how it looks, but I suspect you'll probably want
to go the
sizer route before long. I'd love to be able to automatically convert
from .RC to
sizers directly, but I haven't yet found a way to do that. There is
wxGridBagSizer
which combines the sizer notion with addressing by cell - personally I
prefer the standard
sizers, perhaps because it's what I'm used to.
82 dialogs is a lot but hopefully you'll get into your stride quickly.
Best regards,
