wxMac: dimmed statusbar text after hiding/minimizing the app

Hi all,
I have the following problem with wxStatusBar:
- The status bar has 3 fields (default + 2)
- The text for the last 2 cells changes infrequently
- After hiding the app and then reshowing it the text in those cells looks dimmed (gray) until I set new text.
Is it a bug or an unwanted feature :stuck_out_tongue: ?

Smells like a bug to me. Please make a bug report with a category of "wxMac specific".

What is the best way to bypass it?

You could catch the EVT_ACTIVATE event for the frame and reset the statusbar text in the handler.
