Also, I'm having another problem with this component.  It's a TShape descendant 
and I have hooked up mousedown and mouseup events to change Pen.color and 
Brush.Color properties to different values in order to indicate visual feedback.

If I create the component at runtime, the values work.  IE: If I mouse down on 
the component the colors changes as expected.  If I create the component at 
design time, then there is no change.

I suspect there are some subtle difference in streaming or something between the 
way Delphi does it and Lazarus, but am at a loss as to what those could be.

Thanks again,
