Because the underlying toolkit uses its own "picture" object that is not automatically reassigned to the control automatically. In other words, assume that the Picture property returns a copy of the underlying picture. I did a workaround only for the Control.Font property. I mean, settings Control.Font.Bold for example automatically reassigns the control font so that you see the change. > > And is this the correct way to do this? So, yes!
