Hello Robin,

Seems like the wx.TextCtrl ... style=wx.TE_MULTILINE|wx.TE_RICH2 lost
it's 3D border on win32, python 2.4.3 compared to 2.8.4.0,
or am I doing something wrong?

No. It was supposed to be getting the theme border instead since MS doesn't do that by default for the rich text controls but obviously something went wrong with the change. I've been researching and discussing the problem with Julian this morning and I think we are close to a fix. You can workaround the problem by changing the size of the textctrl after it has been created. That stimulates the system into sending the message where we handle resizing the client size so there is room to do our custom draw of the theme border.
