IMHO this "used by less than 0,1%" it's due to the fact that currently it's very difficult to deploy graphics or other resources whithin uno packages. This operation infact, requires to write a custom configuration schema (xcs file) plus an xcu file in order to extend the OOo registry. Furthermore you must write some not silly code to extract informations from your custom registry entries and finally for loading the graphics on the proper controls. I'm sure that there are many peoples that would add some graphics to embellish their dialogs, much more than 0.1% of starbasic users. Most probably they would like to deploy their work as uno package, but it's simply too difficult for almost all of them. ciao Paolo --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
