Solved
back in the Activity (main) I needed to specify the sub View of the now newly constructed "Control' comprised of many views not attempt to just add the complex view itself
panOrderBinsBase.AddView(binCrtl.panelObj, 10,10,122,200)
VERSUS
panOrderBinsBase.AddView(binCrtl, 10,10,122,200)
binCtrl is a...
Type orderBinObj (panelObj As Panel, lblObj As Label)
I can only add its panel to my parent panel.. the fact that orderBinObj's panel houses other things is moot. You need to add the container thats IN your container to the addView method
Woah man !!! :BangHead: :signOops: Since were on this how does the linked example in my first post get its click event.. I didnt see any method name specified for either the panel or the label. I saw the Button m.b1.Initialize(ButtonEvent) No Quotes and I tested and it works but how did this buttonevent magically become m1_Click ??
Please & Thank you
