Right, ok please ignore pretty much everything I've said. Transpires
I'd forgotten that I'd actually implemented a wxPersistentObject
instance which handles the preservation of the window (which just
happens to be in an wxAui pane). So it's nothing to do with wxAUI
(apologies for that).

The problem therefore appears to be around why that wxPersistentObject
isn't restoring the window (in this case) width properly. All it's doing
is making a call to:

SetSize(wxDefaultCoord,wxDefaultCoord,Width,wxDefaultCoord);

and is still being triggered correctly however for some reason the size
change is being ignored.

I'll need to dig a bit further into this, in the meantime thanks for
the assistance and apologies again for the confusion.

Rgs,

Jon.
