   Docking Pane 8.6 ActiveX:
I am using AddIconHandle to load an icon from a resource file. The icon is 16x16 only. The icon gets displayed as 32x32 on the pane.
Any ideas?

	I think I narowed this down to be an issue with the resource editor in VB. Sorry, this is also a double post. When using LoadResPicture in VB, it seems to always load icons 32X32 pixels, which looks ugly on the docking panes. I've had luck resizing the icons using code such as: Private Declare Function CopyImage Lib "user32" (ByVal handle As Long, ByVal imageType As Long, ByVal newWidth As Long, ByVal newHeight As Long, ByVal lFlags As Long) As Long Private Cons IMAGE_ICON=2 Private Const LR_COPYFROMRESOURCE =3 Dim p As stdole.IPictureDisp Set p = LoadResPicture(101, 1) Dim l As Long l = CopyImage(p.handle, IMAGE_ICON, 16, 16, LR_COPYFROMRESOURCE) DockingPane.AddIconHandle (l,ID) The code above will resize the icon in the resource file to 16X16.
