wxSlider Labels

Am after a few ideas on how I might get some text labels to Align with the indentations on a vertical wxSider. I have tried many combinations of sizers without much success. Here is what I am trying to achieve.

- | - Label 1
- | - Label 2
-[o]- Label 3
- | - Label 4
- | - ...
- | -
- | -
- | -

How about a custom control, which perhaps has in it, a slider and a panel. On the panel you place the labels at the correct vertical positions (however that needs to be calculated).

Here is a link to what I have, it all looks very good but when you move to OS X, all the labels are a different size and no longer match up.

Perhaps you could elaborate on your suggestion Brucey?

Form.fbp

Hmm.. I got this working (on Mac at least) using sliders : slider_label_test.fbp

Though you may not be able to load it into your prog, as it's a v1.9 format file...

So, here's what I did :

Use a flexgridsizer to hold the labels.
6 rows, 1 col.
growablerows = 0,1,2,3,4

It appears to lay them out as I hoped for. Which is, to divide them equally between top and bottom.
Hopefully that'll work in the same way on win32 too...

Brucey, file loads on the Mac version so I could look at what you have done. After converting it back to earlier format file. I get an error in the generated source:

		Local fgSizer2:wxFlexGridSizer
		fgSizer2 = New wxFlexGridSizer.CreateRC(6, 1, 0, 0)
		fgSizer2.AddGrowableRow( 0,1,2,3,4 )
		fgSizer2.SetFlexibleDirection( wxBOTH )
		fgSizer2.SetNonFlexibleGrowMode( wxFLEX_GROWMODE_SPECIFIED )
		m_staticText1 = New wxStaticText.Create(m_panel1, wxID_ANY, _("MyLabel"))
		m_staticText1.Wrap(-1)
		fgSizer2.Add(m_staticText1, 0, wxALL, 5)

on line three of that source snippit I get an error:

"Compile Error
To many function parameters"

Ahh... indeed, the C++ looks like this :

	fgSizer2->AddGrowableRow( 0 );
	fgSizer2->AddGrowableRow( 1 );
	fgSizer2->AddGrowableRow( 2 );
	fgSizer2->AddGrowableRow( 3 );
	fgSizer2->AddGrowableRow( 4 );

String Split here we come...

Brucey, waht about the optional grow parameter?

fgsizer2.AddGrowableRow(0,1)

wxFormBuilder doesn't seem to support that... therefore I think we'll have to live with matching its suggested output for now.

I suspect you'd need a better way of inputting that information.
