Magical Disappearing Choice Items

Maybe this is a design feature of wx.Choice, I didn't have time to look into
it but I suspect the words simply have a foreground colour that is not being
reniewed properly once clicked on.

Maybe it is just my installation of wxPython/gtk/kde or somthing.

Anway, could someone else try it in the demo - go to the choice thing and
popup it up. Select something, do this a few times on different items.

On my machine the foreground colours don't change back to black, giving a
rather confusing picture - see the small png's I've attatched

What version of wx are you running? I seem to remember there was a problem a while ago when this was happening (2.5?.x) but it got fixed.

Having said that, I vaguely remember that it was with Windows XP when themes were enabled, so this may be completely irrelevant :frowning:

It might be an issue with the gtk version and/or the gtk theme. It doesn't happen here for me, although I do see some odd behavior with the scrolling of the content in the choice list, but that is definitely a gtk behavior.
