Hi all,

currently I am porting those JVCL components which look interesting to me (https://sourceforge.net/p/lazarus-ccr/svn/HEAD/tree/components/jvcllaz/), but at the moment I am stuck with the component editor of the TJvOutlookBar. This is some kind of two-level vertical menu. The top level is a list of TJvOutlookBarPage items, and each page has a list of TJvOutlookbarButton items as second level. Both lists inherit from TCollection. My problem is that in the component tree of the object inspector I see only the page items, but not the button "sub-items". See attached screen shot of Lazarus and the Delphi version for comparison. How can I make the button subnodes appear in the component tree?

Another problem: The component comes with a ComponentEditor for the entire class, which looks similar to that of a TCollection, but contains a treeview to display the page-button relationships. After some twiddling around I was able to make this work in Lazarus, i.e. when I add nodes to the tree in the component editor the corresponding buttons or pages are added to the control on the form designer; and when I navigate in the component editor's tree the selected object follows in the component tree and in the object inspector. But the opposite direction does not work:  When I add a page or button in the object inspector (by using the Pages and Buttons collection property editors) the tree in the component editor is not updated. How can I do this?

Any hints greatly appreciated.
Werner
