Mark, fantastic! Can't wait to show this off to others to give them an idea of what can be done with the new plug in. Of course we have to wait until the final (64-bit enabled) plug-in is released. Most everyone here is on Safari-Snowleopard and so it won't work... -- Yes, I know about the 32 bit s

Different objects have different properties

Yeah, I know; stating the crashingly obvious. BUT; I don't see why this should be necessary, if Graphic Objects can have a Label (even though, by default, this possibility is hidden from us) why can they not have icons? Presumably the answer, like so many answers, is that somebody made a reasona
