  13     A static box is a rectangle drawn around other panel items to denote
  14     a logical grouping of items.
  15
  16     Please note that a static box should @b not be used as the parent for the
  17     controls it contains, instead they should be siblings of each other. Although
  18     using a static box as a parent might work in some versions of wxWidgets, it
  19     results in a crash under, for example, wxGTK.
  20
  21     Also, please note that because of this, the order in which you create new
  22     controls is important. Create your wxStaticBox control @b before any
  23     siblings that are to appear inside the wxStaticBox in order to preserve the
  24     correct Z-Order of controls.
