Re: wxPopupTransientWindow on MacOS problems.

A follow up to this as I've got it working, so if someone else sees the 
same problem, there is a fix. But I still think there is an issue.

I set the parent for the popup to be the wxPanel where the button to launch 
it is (I use that panel in various places). Below this panel with the 
button is a different wxPanel (containing things like a grid, toolbar etc).

If I set the parent for the popup to be the wxMiniFrame that holds the 
wxPanels, the controls in the popup now work.

Is this a bug? I think it is, it was pure luck I tried a different parent 
for the popup.

Tony.
