Good memory. That worked fine.
As I remember, the wxWidgets docs said that NewFromPNGData was a wrapper
around Wx::Image calls which is what your suggestion shows.

It seems that Wx::Bitmap NewFromPNGData is not wrapped(didn't see any

When using the hash syntax and making a typo, the hash will be perfectly

As a new learner,for me, the state of the documentation is the major
issue. The wxWidgets document is massive and the perl references are
spotty. As a result, I bought the WxBook and converted the C++ examples to

Timing issue seemed to be related to defining the frame smaller than the
