Dear Chris,

Thank your very much for your prompt reply.

I love Python *and* wxPython/wxWidgets -- but having worked several
years with RAD tools like Visual Basic and (much better) Borland
Delphi, I find all available GUI builders for Python very limited (and
sizers are among these perceived limitations).

As a matter of fact, wxGlade forces one to do this. I usually do not
like (or use) code generated by wxGlade, but for rapid prototyping I
find it to be better than, for example, Boa Constructor (which is as
huge and slow is the boa snakes themselves).

Sure, it worked, but I still have problems with properly sizing the
figure. This I could amend by declaring:

self.figure = Figure()
instead of self.figure = Figure(figsize=(10,5))

and:

self.ax = self.figure.add_subplot(111)
instead of self.ax = self.figure.add_axes([0,0,1,1])

However the figure is still not properly sized when the window is
maximized (but this is obviously another problem with my handling of
wxPython classes).

I hope to have this example up and running as it may be a useful
addition to the collection of examples in the Basemap module, saving a
lot of time for others!

With best regards,
