Aha, yup, thanks!

I suspect it was the difference between

          set f [layout := fill (widget s),
                 clientSize := sz 300 300]

and

          set f [clientSize := sz 300 300,
                 layout := fill (widget s)]

that caught me out (but that's a wxWidgets issue rather than a wxHaskell
one, of course).


Thanks
Ian
