[wxPython] wxNotebook and Key Events

Fellow wxPython users,

We have a little app we’re developing and have run into an issue I can’t resolve. We created an app (with wxDesigner, kudos to Robert Roebling) that had a panel with controls on it. We associated key combinations with some of the menu items and everything worked perfectly. Inevitably, our form grew to the point of being unwieldy, so we partitioned it into a wxNotebook. At this point the key combos stopped working. I’ve tried everything I can find in the docs and list archives, but can’t seem to get it to work. It looks like the wxNotebook is eating the key events, but I can’t get it to stop. What am I missing?

Thanks for your help,

What platform and wxPython version? This sounds familiar but I think it's
been fixed for a while.
