Re: Base class

You're right -- it works fine in 4.08.

FWIW, somewhere between version 2.13 and version 3.19 the Base Class
row in the attributes window went away for custom controls and that
change led to the issue I was experiencing.

I like the changes in 4.08 (especially being able to subclass
again and will need to upgrade.

Thanks!
