Re: Adding Flags to Main Tab in Property Box

Thanks, David, Lorna, and Mike. I finally got it right. For some reason I misread the instructions, and then when I didn't see the <Custom Item> listing because it was above the scroll of the Custom Property Box window, I improvised and totally screwed up. But, I've got it now. Thanks for your patience in sticking with me and getting me to understand this process.

Here are screenshots of my successful operation:

One further question: Is it possible to get CW Service on the same line as Living and Private. I think I read somewhere that in general it's not, but I thought I should ask specifically in this case.

I'm glad you got there in the end.
Unfortunately you can't have more than two items on a line, even though there would be room for more tick boxes in the same line.

Well, Lorna, it seems it would be easy to solve this issue with a software update. I hope that they do that, as it would make the screen look better and would be a better use of screen real estate, so to speak. -- Carl
