My "malpositioned" I mean positioned somewhere that you can't see them -- most likely, off the window, or perhaps embedded in some other control that's been set to invisible. My current best bet is that it's either that, or the cloned controls are invisible for some reason (either they have .Visible=False, or some parent control they belong to does). HTH, - Joe Prior to previous post, I added .Visible=True statements to the cloning loop. Again, all Canvases are doing the right graphical stuff, as addressed from Methods. If I instantiate any Canvas in Window1 by dragging it in (anywhere), then that instance triggers Paint and refreshes. It seems to me that that proves that this cannot be a matter of malpositioning, since I use the same code to position and size the canvases, regardless of whether they were dragged in or cloned. However, only non-cloned Canvases trigger the Paint event.
