Strange difference between "thin" and "full" Notes client

Some users choose to run the “thin” client for speed/efficiency, so I need to develop compatible UIs. There is a strange glitch in Calendar view. I have added a column to contain an icon, which is a GIF which we created. In designer and “thin” client, the icon is visible both in the Calendar view and when mouse-over pop’s up. But in the “full” client, the column is empty, and there’s a space on the pop-up where the icon should appear. Anyone have an idea?

Subject: I believe the Full client isn’t using your modified views

The full client is using what Lotus calls the Java views.

I’m not sure how you go about modifying the Java views.

Subject: the view is the same

I could tell that the views are the same, because I could reverse the order of the columns, and the blank space moved with the missing icon. I could also put a standard Notes icon into my new column, and that shows in both thick and thin.

I think, after playing some more, that it has something to do with the quality of the icon. I was using high-quality GIFs with transparency, and that is the one that’s missing in the rich view. I tried substituting my own poor-quality gif (created in Paint), and it works in both views.

Strange !
