I'm still getting issues.
To reproduce..
1. load any project.
2. click a control.
3 click in the "Group" property field.

throws an error.

Unable to load image.
[gb.gui.base].ComboBox.UpdateClearButton.225

I think it is something to do with Image.Load() on that line.

This code...
        If Component.IsLoaded("gb.form.stock") Then
          $hClearImage = Image.Load("icon:/128/clear")
        Else
makes the error.

If i change it to this code...
        If Component.IsLoaded("gb.form.stock") Then
          $hClearImage = Picture["icon:/128/clear"].Image
        Else
Then no error.

(shouldn't you do it similar to that anyway to handle dark theme ? )
