Posted this on CGTalk - got no replies. I guess I’ll have to ask the elite 
Clicking the radio buttons switches the visibility of two frames on/off. But for some reason, the first frame still takes up space (10 px in height) despite setVisible(False).
I tried hiding the label as well with setLabelVisible() but that didn’t change a thing. I’ve also tried setting the marginHeight to 0 but that only affects the elements inside the frame.
Why am I getting extra padding like this?
