Comments

The DefaultTopicPicture property defines the default picture used for topics.

Individual entries can override the default topic picture by using the SftOptionsEntry.Picture property.

To restore the control's built-in default image, set the property to Nothing (0, null, NULL).  It is not possible to completely remove topic pictures.

' bitmap has been defined in the picture box using its Image property.
