Dick,

Take a look at the two images of the same dialog in Windows XP using
wxWidgets 2.8.10. This confirms my suspicions that there are some
differences between how sizers behave on different platforms. We will
just have to be more diligent when creating dialog boxes to make sure
they render properly on all platforms. Are any of you OSX developers
seeing these problem? If so, please bring it to someones attention so
it can be fixed.
