Hi, I spent some time tracking down the real issue.
wxWidgets 2.8.12 introduces some improvements to wxAuiNotebook. The window will no longer carry out updates if it is Frozen. Padre locks the main Window during any update with creation of a Wx::WindowUpdateLocker instance. This just Freezes the window on construction and Thaws it on destruction. On wxMSW alone, freezing a top level window freezes all its children also. So, on wxMSW + 2.8.12 none of the normal layout refreshes for the Wx::AuiNotebook instances take place because you have frozen the window via the toplevel freeze. Any kind of window update outside your locking scheme causes the window to update correctly. Fix - I'm not sure. Ii would all work fine if you didn't Freeze the window though I guess that will mess things up quite a bit. Hope it helps.
