It appears that it is not getting the leave window event in that case, 
or something like that.  You can work around this by putting the panel 
between the notebook and the SashLayoutWindow.

         # for notebook test
         p = wx.Panel(slw)
         x = wx.Notebook(p, -1)
         def nb_size(evt):
             sz = evt.GetSize()
             x.SetDimensions(0,0, sz.width, sz.height)
         p.Bind(wx.EVT_SIZE, nb_size)

If you have time I'd really like to see a sample that replicates this 
problem so I can dig into it and figure out what is going on.
