Of course .. I understand your proposal.. :wink:
Led is a very simple and specific example, and I would not like to add it
by default to the IDE when no one will use it. Maybe I need more complex
controls, and they will be even more unnecessary to the rest of users, and
only obstruct in the interface within the list of controls. :disapointed:
It's a pity, but for now I'm going to continue with the controls within the
component..

It's how gb.db.form was made: if I want a ComboBox control linked to a
> database field, I name it "DataComboBox".

Maybe use the suggested nomenclature. :wink:

Well, Now I will focus on making a solid component and I'll plan how to
extend it correctly.. :smile:
Thanks for all,
Regards
