Another "Dummies" Question

[Smee]

I am testing bits of code to try and understand the order of things etc and I do not know why this bit of code does not work as i expect

Dim P As Panel
p.Initialize("p")
 CustName=Value
 Log(CustName)
 p.AddView(P,0,0,100%x,100%y)
 p.SetBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "small_img_handler3.jpeg"))
p.BringToFront

The image or panel does not show on the screen but the code does execute ok

What am i missing please

Thanks

You need to add the view "p" to the activity - Activity.Addview(p....)

Thank you

The actual working code ssnippet now reads

Dim P As Panel
p.Initialize("p")
 CustName=Value
 Log(CustName)
 p.SetBackgroundImage(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "small_img_handler3.jpeg"))
 Activity.AddView(P,0,0,100%x,100%y)

Thanks again Admac
