Summary: Help Window changes menu bar of application windows

Initial Comment:
Hi,

I'm using wxHTMLHelpController/wxHTMLHelpProvider on Mac OS X. When I open a help window, the menu bar switches to to the one set by MacSetCommonMenuBar. Activating another window does not switch it back to the window menu bar.

wxMac 2.8.4 and 2.8.7

Ok. I think I hit a trap in the event system while trying to imitate
mutiple top level windows (see request #1897874 and attached file). After
removing the corresponding code I could no longer reproduce the error.

For the records:
The file attached is a diff against the help sample from wx 2.8.4.
The error was in MyFrame::OnActivate.

So it was my fault. I'm so sorry for wasting your time.
I don't know, how to set the appropirate flags, so I won't touch them.

Hi

could you please provide a test case, ie describe which sample shows the
problem, or a small diff to an existing sample, this saves us a lot of
time

thanks,

Stefan
