Hi,

I am loading a layout as part of a custom view.

Create Item for custom list view:
'======================================================================================
Private Sub CreateCurveListItem(cv As curveSetupRec_t) As Pane
    Dim p As AnchorPane
    p.Initialize("")
    'p.LoadLayout("cvCurveSetups - Copy.bjl") ' <===='  Error here
    p.LoadLayout("cvCurveSetups.bjl") ' <===='  This work fine
    p.SetSize(1000, 64)
   
   
    setLineWidthSpinner(spinLineWidth)

    lblCurveID.Text             = cv.curveID
    lblCurveID.Tag                 = "curveID"
    lblCurveNo.Text             = cv.curveNo
    lblCurveNo.Tag                 = "curveNo"
    txtYMax.Text                 = cv.maxVal
    txtYMax.Tag                 = "maxVal"
    txtYMin.text                 = cv.minVal
    txtYMin.Tag                 = "minVal"
    cPickCurve.SelectedColor     = fx.Colors.From32Bit(cv.curveColor)
    cPickCurve.Tag                 = "curveColor"
    txtCurveName.Text             = cv.curveName
    txtCurveName.Tag             = "curveName"
    txtYUnits.text                 = cv.curveUnits
    txtYUnits.Tag                 = "curveUnits"
    spinLineWidth.SelectedIndex    = spinLineWidthMap.Get(cv.curveLineWidth)
    spinLineWidth.Tag            = "curveLineWidth"
    cbInitialDisplay.Checked     = cv.initialDisplay
    cbInitialDisplay.Tag         = "initialDisplay"
    cbPlotCurve.Checked            = cv.initialDisplay
    cbPlotCurve.Tag                = "cbPlotCurve"
    cbYAnnotations.Checked         = cv.yAxisAnotations
    cbYAnnotations.Tag             = "yAxisAnotations"

'    Log("Curve No: " & cv.curveNo  & "  cbPlotCurve.Checked  " &  cbPlotCurve.Checked &  "  cbYAnnotations: "  & cbYAnnotations.Checked)
    Return p
End Sub

It was working fine until I made rearrangements of the views within the layout. After I did this I received the following error:

I have attached the two layout files in a zip.

This one works:

LayoutOK.png



This one crashes:

LayoutThatCrashes.png


Can some one have a look at this problem please? I can't provide the entire project as it is very large and complex.

Additional:

I made a small test project which loads the two layouts into separate panes. The error still occurs in this environment. I am using B4J 8.5 with W:\MyProgramFiles_W\Java_11_0_1\bin\javac.exe.
