DOH! I should have thought of that. <insert lame excuse here> Thanks! Either I've found a bug, or I'm not doing something right. The doc says: "To provide the icons of your component controls, you must create a /control directory at the root of your project, and put one PNG file for each control icon in it. The name of a control icon must be the class name of the control in lower case with the .png extension." I tried that but it just shows a black question mark in the IDE panel when I load the component. The component itself works as expected. Are there any other requirements needed of the icon? I'm currently using a 32 x 32 PNG file, named in all lowercase the same as the component. I'm running Gambas3 on Ubuntu 9.10. Am I allowed to use *optional* arguments in the _new sub of the component? Or am I not suppose to pass arguments to _new? I know I have to pass the name of the parent container when I use it at runtime. I currently have it working using arguments in the _new sub and passing the parent name at the end of the argument list. However, the last argument I was using is *optional*. If I leave the optional argument empty, the IDE says the parent name is 'unexpected'. If I pass Null as the optional argument just prior to the parent name, naturally it's the wrong data type for the argument. I'm probably missing something obvious again. Go ahead and smack me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
