IN VB.net you just point and click to add icons to the form's Menu control.
Is there a way (preferably easy!  :-[ ) to do this in FF3?

Not an "easy" thing to do. I did it with my JellyFish Pro editor but it uses an owner/custom draw set up. Basically, you end up having to draw all aspects of the menu yourself. There is code on the PB forum (old stuff from Borje Hagsten) that shows these techniques. Personally, in my applications I am moving away from icons in menus because I prefer the traditional clean looking menus rather than the cluttered pictures.

Hi Petrus,
I downloaded the example by Borje Hagsten some time ago and got it working for my program. I made one change: instead of using an imagelist I used individual icons. You can get it if you want it.
