OK, you come immediately from Gambas 2, right? Control.Grab() worked
completely differently in Gambas 2. It took a screenshot of the control,
as you know.
In Gambas 3 it grabs the mouse and keyboard of the program, so that all
mouse and keyboard events produced are raised under that control's event
name. Look it up in the documentation[0].
So no wonder that your page remains empty, as the image you are painting
is also empty. You noticed that there was some problem with Grab(), right?
You use Try on the Grab() line because it would otherwise raise an error.
That's an indication to look at the documentation, especially if you use a
new major version the first time :-)
