Gathering Wxpy widgets

[Stefano Mtangoo]

I have code but when I want to gather my widgets under same wx.StaticBox I fail. I wonder what is wrong! Please someone to corrrect me!

#Add static box to hold related widgets--- it otherwise does nothing
        holder1 = wx.StaticBox(mpanel, -1, label="Transactions", pos = (10, 10), size = (300,300))
        #add box to sizer for widgets only --- This is not main sizer
        wsizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx.VERTICAL)
        wsizer.Add(holder1, 0, wx.EXPAND |wx.ALL, 5)
        
        #Make widgets for transaction
        #First row of widets
        id_text = wx.StaticText(mpanel, -1, "Enter Product ID")
        id_text_area = wx.TextCtrl(mpanel, -1) 
        find = wx.Button(mpanel, -1, "Find", size=(70, 30))       
        #Add them to hor sizer
        hbox1 = wx.BoxSizer()
        hbox1.Add(id_text, 0, wx.ALL, 5)
        hbox1.Add(id_text_area, 0, wx.BOTTOM| wx.TOP| wx.RIGHT, 5)
        hbox1.Add(find, 0, wx.BOTTOM| wx.TOP| wx.RIGHT, 5)
        #add this sizer to widgets sizer
        wsizer.Add(hbox1,0, wx.EXPAND)
         
        #add widgets sizer wsizer to main vertical sizer mains
        mains.Add(wsizer, 0, wx.EXPAND)
        #set sizers and Layouts
        mpanel.SetSizer(mains)
        mpanel.Layout()

Of hand, I would say main vertical sizer mains is missing.

I forgot to say that, that is a part of code; May be I have to post full code!

        mpanel = wx.Panel(self, -1)
        #Define main sizer

        mpanel.SetSizer(mains)
        mpanel.Layout()
        
        
        
        
app = wx.App(False)
f = MainWindow(None, -1, "Cash Program")
f.Center()
f.Show()
app.MainLoop()
