Been a while since I had a problem; so I guess it's about time. I've written a .dll that has a few methods, and a few variables. It has a method called Create(int x, int y) that will place a new 4 square formation onto the form in the project that is using the dll. Now when I test it in my forms application it doesn't create the 4 square. Any help is appreciated.

}Then using a test forms application I'm trying to use the agWindmill.Create(int x, int y) method I created to generate a new windmill. I'm trying to learn exactly how to create custom methods that will generate graphic content. This is the test form source.
