     I'm having difficulties getting an image to appear on the Zoomer as
the visMoniker of a trigger.

     I created the image with two formats, one specified as size = standard;
style = tool; color = color4; and the other as standard; tool; gray1.  Both
are 15x15 images.

     When I run my app under Geoworks (GEOSEC, to be specific) the color
image is correctly displayed as the visMoniker.  When I run the app on the
Zoomer (and under ZOOMEC), it selects the monochrome image, but the image
is corrupted.  The top half is fine, but the bottom half is a repeat of the
top half.  Its as if lines 1 - 7 were repeated for lines 8 - 15 of the
image.

     Any thoughts?  Changing the size to tiny had no effect.  Is there a 
magic incantation to produce a Zoomer visMoniker?

     Also, how can you change the height of a GenValueClass?  It ignores
hints to EXPAND_HEIGHT_FIT_PARENT, and I was hoping to avoid having to
explicitly compute its height to make it taller.

     It's nice to see some developer-related questions beginning to emerge.
It means apps are on the way!
