Every icon/image (=resource in a qooxdoo-spoken way) is managed by the "qx.util.ResourceManager" in a map which programmatically ends up that every image is only referenced one time within the ResourceManager. The widgets are using the ResourceManager together with the ImageLoader to ensure the image is only loaded once, but I guess you have in mind that the image should be instantiated and the widgets are sharing this instance? Is that correct?
Since an image is tied to every DOM element individually so you can't share the image. Every image used at your application boils down to an instance of "qx.html.Image" which is tied to a specific DOM element and there is no way to establish a sharing here. I hope I understand your questions right and the answers help you further :-) cheers, Alex ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ qooxdoo-devel mailing list qooxdoo-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/qooxdoo-devel
