A row of all non-fixed bars don't position properly

By Julian Smart.

I found that if I added all non-fixed bars, bars would overlap. This seems to be because the proportional resizing doesn't work before the window is laid out. I worked around this by setting pane sizes before the bars are added:

    wxSize sz = GetClientSize();

    // Set width for panes to help it do the calculations
    int i;
    for (i = 0; i < 2; i++)
    {
        cbDockPane& pane = * (m_frameLayout->GetPane(i));
        pane.SetPaneWidth(sz.x);
    }
