[wxPython-users] screen 'repaint' issues

[Lanier, Paul]

I got something like this once when I was using Freeze and Thaw on a
top-level frame.  So if you are using those you might want to comment
that out and see if it fixes it.

Something is preventing the Frame from painting its background.  Do you
bind an empty hander for the EVT_ERASE_BACKGROUND event?  You should
also try just using the default style for the frame.
