Hey,
I did a quick check on whats going on. The problem is clear to me now:
Using e.g. the virtual select box as child control changes its appearance key
from the default "virtual-selectbox" to "widget/dummy" in the given sample.
Usually, that will not work but the virtual select box has a default appearance
which is "virtual-selectbox. This id will be used if no other is found.
For the arrow, the same is true. The widget itself is a plain image and will
also have a new appearance key: "widget/dummy/arrow". This will also lead to a
fallback to the default id which is "image" and not "virtual-selectbox/arrow".
Thats why the image is gone because the src property definition is ofc. not in
the generic image appearance.
As a workaround, you can set the appearance of the arrow child control:
control.getChildControl("arrow").setAppearance("virtual-selectbox/arrow");
I'm not sure if its possible at all to have the proper default id if its a
child control. Might be worth a bug report to find out. ;)
Regards,
Martin
