HyperCard Button Icons

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Phil and Dave,

Yes, there is a problem with ID numbers. Probably, the buttons are  
using the altID of the images. The images are in the original stack.  
The hcAddressing of the new stack is false, which means that the  
normal ID instead of the altID is used and thus the icons don't appear  
in the new stack.

You need to copy the images, check the ID numbers and make sure to use  
the correct ID numbers for the icons of the buttons.
