Hi.1. Question: how i can send own custom messages? Is a unique ID for such own message needed?
2. Question: how i can change the icon of a tag 'on the fly'? (like icon of the instance object).

(Assuming C++.)
1. You can use SpecialEventAdd() with a unique plugin ID to send CoreMessage(), or simply Message() with a unique ID to send normal Atom messages.
2. I don't think it's possible, since the icon is shared between all instances of the tag. (Btw, does the instance object icon ever change? It didn't seem to when I tested it.) -

Ok, that's right. Unfortunately, according to the programmers, this isn't possible for plugin objects (or tags).

Hmm, I don´t know actually. I haven´t tried it yet.
Spontaneously it should simply work like so:GetCustomIconData* gcid = static_cast<GetCustomIconData*>(data);
if(gcid && bmp)
{
bmp->CopyTo(gcid->dat->bmp); //Or fill it otherwise
gcid->filled = TRUE;
return TRUE;
}If it doesn´t I cannot say why.

I just read that you can also directly assign your own bitmap when it´s not yet set up.
