Have you read (docs & wiki) about wxSizer?
sizers is what you need for dealing with different screen resolution
and different font sizes.

If you use absolute sizes in your dialog, you have to redo them using
wxSizers (or another layout mechanism). If you already use sizers and just
want to make the dialogs proportionally bigger on a bigger screen, the
usual solution is to simply make them resizeable and remember the last
window position/size -- like this the user can choose whatever suits him
best.
