Hi!
I need to create a panel of icons that can be dragged and dropped onto a
map layer.
That sounds a like a "FeatureEditor" to me. Make a tool that adds points
to the map, and based on an attribute displays the correct icons. Then
make a custom feature editor that will let the user change the icon
nicely. Finally make a view that has your icons on it, and based on the
currently selected one it will create a feature of the appropriate type.
The actual data could be a shapefile, or a database or anything.
