Posts: 20                I'm using a control array of ImageWells to display 
thumbnails of pictures which when clicked on, display a larger image in a 
canvas.

Why not use canvas controls for the thumbnail images as well? Because I want to 
display a right click menu to add and delete the picture and the events for 
contextual menu construct and action wont fire on the canvas control when it 
doesn't contain a picture.

All's working fine except I can only see the top corner of the picture in the 
ImageWell. I don't know how to resize the picture to fit the imagewell (50 x 
50) dimensions like I can with a canvas because the imagewell doesn't have a 
paint method or graphics property.

Am I using the wrong control to display the thumbnails? I was thinking of 
incorporating a drag and drop function to add pictures to thumbnails later on.
Should I go back to canvas controls and add a default picture such as an icon 
with some text like "Drop picture here" or similar? At least then canvas will 
display my contextual menu on right click.
