    Default Tool Palette Block Icons Missing

    I've created a custom tool palette and have dragged and dropped blocks from the Design Centre. In Design Centre, I can see the blocks that I want and it shows the thumbnail image. When I drag the block into the new tool palette, the thumbnail of the block disappears. Some of them work but others do not. Is there something that I'm doing wrong that would cause the icon / thumbnail view of the block to not appear on the tool palette?

    Sometimes the cursed images just won't show up like they should. In those cases I create an image as I desire and load that image instead.

    I've had the same issue. I think there's something buggy about the tool palette images.
    I have created my own, and just used those.

    also, sometimes,
    deleting the tool and recreating SOMETIMES fixes the image.

    I realize this is an old post, but I was having the same issue.

    When I would drag an annotative block from Windows Explorer on to a tool palette, it would create a button but the image was blank.

    It appears after much trial and error that I have a solution & it's pretty simple.


    Just make sure that before you drag the block over that the Annotation Visibility button on the Status Bar is pushed on.
