[wx-dev] wxStaticText resize on minimization

[Jacob Barsøe Kjærgaard]

Hi,

I have attached a small patch to the minimal sample, such that the behavior =

described below can be reproduced.
1) Start it up.
2) Check labels positions
3) Click change label - label is not resized
4) minimize to taskbar and back -> label is resized

 It's a bug. If you could submit a (simplest possible) patch to the minimal
sample allowing to reproduce it, I can try to have a look at fixing it. Of
course, if you can do it yourself, this would be even greater.

 Thanks,
