well, I love sizers -- but they do take a while to wrap your brain around.
Your difficulty probably stems from using a combination of wxGlade and
handwritten code. Also, I don't know if wxGlade forces you to do it this
way, but you have a whole bunch of stuff all nested in the Frame, when
it would be better designed if each component was it's own class.
anyway, I think your problem is:
# ----- UNCOMMENT THE LINES BELOW TO DRAW THE MAP
#self.figure = Figure(figsize=(10,5))
#self.canvas = FigureCanvas(self, -1, self.figure)
you've given "self" as the parent of your FigureCanvas, when it needs to
be parented by the Panel it goes on, which I think is self.PlotPanel, so
the above line should be:
self.canvas = FigureCanvas(self.PlotPanel, -1, self.figure)
One thing wx does do "wrong" is let you put a control on one parent,
then Add it to a sizer attached to a different parent -- it should
probably raise an error when you do that.
