Most of the sizing and placement routines in win32lib allow you to
specify relative values as well as explict values.
For example:
setCtlPos(id, 0.10, 0.05)
will set a control's X/Y pixel position relative to its parent at 10% of
the parent's width and 5% of its height. Thus if the window is 640 by
400, this would set the control at 64,20.
This also works for sizing.
setCtlSize(id, 0.25, 0.15)
would set the width to 25% of 640 = 160 pixels,
height = 15% of 400 = 60 pixels.
You can change the location and size in a Resize event handler for the
window.
There is also some routines available to move controls so that they
align or resize relative to other controls. Look at the docs for
alignControls() and sizeControls().
I may have got these routine names wrong as I'm not on a machine that
has win32lib installed.
