Hello everyone, I’m learning how to develop apps and studiyng all tutorials, but in the DIY Book Club tutorial the buttons “Help with component Layout/Properties/Renaming” aren’t working. How could I ask for a help to fix the buttons and display the images that it should display?
Thanks in advance"

Hi Peter, I’m sorry for not including the link in the first post.

When I right-click the problematic buttons and then click in “inspect elements”, Chrome browser opens the “elements screen” and then I am able to navigate through the DIVs and other HTML components that are hidden.
This way I was able to access the gifs and other images that are only showed after the buttons are clicked.
So, the images are there, the problem appears to be in how HTML is handling them, maybe…

Thanks for the report. We are looking into it.

Are the button images misbehaving in the app itself (Companion, emulator or built), or only in the Designer?
Your procedure would only help diagnose Designer display issues.
