If I recall correctly, the weird 1x1 window had something to do with getting the layout to work. I think if a panel only had one child, it wanted to resize the child to be the full size of the panel which I didn't want. > and therefore must have the focus, everything works fine!).

It's entirely possible that I patched my copy of wxgl for just this problem and didn't get that change into the source tree I distributed. I'll look into that. I last worked on this almost exactly a year ago so I don't remember the details very well, especially since I was trying to get a installer release out in a hurry. I'm pretty sure this was also before we had migrated to bzr and created our own crystalspace fork, so change tracking was a bit more difficult... Isn't cross platform development fun?
