Not one I know, will ask ( looks like there is no way to do it in wxWindows );
for now you may create a status bar with 2 fields, and set the first to size 0

$this->CreateStatusBar( 2 );
$this->GetStatusBar()->SetStatusWidths( 0, -1 );

$this->SetStatusText( "mytext", 1 );

this is ugly to say the least, but ( almost ) works ( you can
see the first field, and this is ugly ).
