When I'm putting together a GUI, I often find I want margins around 
various objects, particularly things like dLabel, which otherwise run 
right up against adjacent controls (or the window edge) and look 
awkward.

        Does Dabo provide any convenient way to specify margins or padding 
around a given object when creating it or adding it to a sizer?  I can 
add padding by inserting spacers, but this is cumbersome, because I need 
to add additional sizers just to include the padding if I want padding 
in the opposite direction from the existing sizer.  (That is, if I have 
some objects in a vertical sizer, and I want one of them to have 
horizontal padding, I have to add a horizontal sizer just to add spacers 
to it.)  I'm wondering if there's a convenient way to specify padding on 
all four sides when creating the object itself, or when linking it into 
the rest of the GUI.

Thanks,
