Thanks that was helpful.

I see that our wxBitmapButton looks significantly different on Windows. 
I think I have since addressed that by producing a smaller bitmap for 
the buttons, assuming that on the non-windows platforms there was some 
cropping taking place that we don't need.

I want to provide 4 mouse actions in this widget:


1) layer selection on left single click

2) layer color change on middle single click

3) layer visibility on left single click on checkbox

4) popup menu for enable all, clear all, and future actions. on right 
single click



*Does a MAC have a middle mouse button yet?*

I would be inclined to use middle mouse single click for color change if 
there are no objections.

I don't want to use double click since it seems you cannot get that 
event without first receiving a single click event. (This would mean 
you could not change a layer color without first selecting it, so I want 
to avoid that by using middle click.)


(BTW the popup menu is to minimize screen real estate, rather than 
putting up an always visible pair of buttons.)
