Toggle tools don't use 2nd bitmap?

The native toolbar control used on Windows does not use the 2nd bitmap,
it manages drawing the toggled state itself.

I found a work around. In my __init__ method I save the bitmaps, the tool, and the toolbar like this:

    # work around a bug that prevents the toggle bitmaps from working properly
    self.tb = tb
    self.CopyTool = tb.FindById(self.CopyId)
    self.CopyToolBitmaps = [ wx.Bitmap('icons/NoCopy.bmp', wx.BITMAP_TYPE_BMP),
                             wx.Bitmap('icons/Copy.bmp', wx.BITMAP_TYPE_BMP) ]
    # end of workaround

Then in my handler for EVT_TOOL for the tool I call this method to update the bitmap.

  def UpdateToggleCopy(self):
    # work around a bug that prevents toggle bitmaps from being seen
    self.CopyTool.SetBitmap1(self.CopyToolBitmaps[self.CopyState])
    self.tb.Realize()
    # end of workaround
