No. However, you can combine the frame and panel code into a single
class if you like:

import wx

class F(wx.Frame):
def __init__(self):
wx.Frame.__init __(self, None, -1, "Test Frame")
panel = wx.Panel(self, -1)
sizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx. VERTICAL)

b = wx.Button(panel , -1, "Quit")
wx.EVT_BUTTON(p anel, b.GetId(), self.on_quit)

sizer.AddMany([
(wx.TextCtrl(pa nel, -1, size = (250, -1), value = "XXX")),
(b, 0, wx.EXPAND),
])

panel.SetDefaul tItem(b)
b.SetFocus()

panel.SetAutoLa yout(True)
panel.SetSizer( sizer)
sizer.Fit(panel )

self.Fit()

def on_quit(self, e):
self.Close(True )


def main():
app = wx.PySimpleApp( )
f = F()
f.Show(True)
app.MainLoop()


if __name__ == "__main__":
main()



Alternatively, you can dispense with creating a custom class for the
frame (which is perhaps a bit closer to what you are asking):


import wx

class P(wx.Panel):
def __init__(self, parent, id = -1):
wx.Panel.__init __(self, parent, id)
sizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx. VERTICAL)

b = wx.Button(self, -1, "Quit")
wx.EVT_BUTTON(s elf, b.GetId(), lambda evt: parent.Close(Tr ue))

sizer.AddMany([
(wx.TextCtrl(se lf, -1, size = (250, -1), value = "XXX")),
(b, 0, wx.EXPAND),
])

self.SetDefault Item(b)
b.SetFocus()

self.SetAutoLay out(True)
self.SetSizer(s izer)
sizer.Fit(self)


def main():
app = wx.PySimpleApp( )
f = wx.Frame(None, -1, "Test Frame")
P(f)
f.Fit()
f.Show(True)
app.MainLoop()


if __name__ == "__main__":
main()



Personally, I prefer to keep objects discrete, especially for panels
which might at some point get moved to some other container (say you
decide to put a notebook or splitter in the frame), but if you're not
concerned about that then these are both valid approaches.
