toolbar not rendering properly

wxPython Users

I have the following code in a project which is supposed to initialize
a toolbar :

        toolbar = top_frame.CreateToolBar( wx.wxNO_BORDER|wx.wxTB_HORIZONTAL )

        toolbar.AddControl( wx.wxButton(toolbar, Constants.QADD_BUTTON, "Create Group") )
        toolbar.AddControl( wx.wxButton(toolbar, Constants.QADD_BUTTON, "Create Question") )
        toolbar.AddSeparator()
        [and so on]

This works just fine on my unix system (with wxGTK), but with wxMSW
all of the buttons are piled on top of each other at the far left of
the toolbar.

What is the root of the problem and how can I solve or work around it?

TIA,

the toolbar.

add:

toolbar.Realize()

after adding everything. It doesn't seem to be neccessary on GTK, but it
is on MSW.
