problem - where the toolbar used to be, there is now a gap. The rest of the
widgets do not fill in the area where the toolbar used to be. However, if I
explicitly call self.toolbar.Hide() in the application code, so that it is
executed before the application starts, then the toolbar is gone and the
widgets fill the frame in perfectly.

Here's the toggle method:

    def OnToggleStandardToolbar(self, e):

        if self.toolbarOn:
            self.toolbarOn =3D False
            self.toolbar.Hide()
            self.SetToolBar(None)

        elif not self.toolbarOn:
            self.toolbarOn =3D True
            self.toolbar.Show()
            self.SetToolBar(self.toolbar)

(self.toolbarOn is a flag so that I don't have to call isChecked.)

I don't know if self.Refresh() is necessary, but hiding the toolbar
explicitly before the application starts gets the result that I want.
