wxPython Plot always comes to focus on redraw

[Jacob Davis]

Thanks for the reply.

The parent is a notebook. (the Plotcanvas is a page in the notebook)   
I tried to make the page of the notebook a panel, and then make the  
PlotCanvas a child of this panel, but the Plot would not show up when  
drawn.

I may have time to make a mini program to duplicate the error in the  
future...
