1. wxEuphoria v0.11 - wxButton on a child window

This is the code.

constant
 frmHtml = create(wxFrame,{Win,-1,"DMAK - documentation"}),
 pnlHtml = create(wxPanel,{frmHtml}),
 boxHtml = create(wxBoxSizer,{wxVERTICAL}),
 btnHtml = create(wxButton,{Win,-1,
  "Click here or Press ESC to exit to main; <- -> arrows to navigate."}),
 winHtml = create(wxHtmlWindow,{Win,-1,-1,50}) -- This is the main part.

set_sizer(pnlHtml,boxHtml)
set_size(btnHtml,win_width,50)
set_size(winHtml,win_width,win_height-100)
add_window_to_sizer(boxHtml,btnHtml,1,wxGROW,0)
add_window_to_sizer(boxHtml,winHtml,1,wxGROW,1)

What it is supposed to do and what it did on v0.9:
It is supposed to make a wide button and a wxHtmlWindow.
Both are on a child window.

What it does on v0.11:
It makes the wxHtmlWindow, but no button.
Instead of a button, there is a space the size and shape of the button and the
parent window shows thru the space.

How can I get the button back?

Win is the main wxPanel.

When I change 'Win' (the main wxPanel) to 'pnlHtml' (a wxPanel) like this

btnHtml = create(wxButton,{Win,-1,
winHtml = create(wxHtmlWindow,{Win,-1,-1,50}) -- This is the main part.

btnHtml = create(wxButton,{pnlHtml,-1,
winHtml = create(wxHtmlWindow,{pnlHtml,-1,-1,50}) -- This is the main part.

then nothing happens.

Also when I change to 'frmHtml' (a wxFrame) nothing happens.

btnHtml = create(wxButton,{frmHtml,-1,
winHtml = create(wxHtmlWindow,{frmHtml,-1,-1,50}) -- This is the main part.

Child windows and wxPanels and wxFrames confuse me. I usually fiddle with them
without completely knowing what I'm doing until something works.

The above code doesn't show the button.
Putting the button on pnlHtml didn't work either. Strange.

The below code shows the button.

constant
 frmHtml = create(wxFrame,{Win,-1,"DMAK - documentation"}),
 pnlHtml = create(wxPanel,{frmHtml}),
 boxHtml = create(wxBoxSizer,{wxVERTICAL}),
 winHtml = create(wxHtmlWindow,{Win}), -- This is the main part.
 btnHtml = create(wxButton,{winHtml,-1,
  "Click here or Press ESC to exit to main; <- -> arrows to navigate."})

set_sizer(pnlHtml,boxHtml)
set_size(btnHtml,win_width,50)
set_size(winHtml,win_width,win_height)

I put the button on the HtmlWindow.
