You're welcome. :) > Btw why can’t type helpers be used here? I though you could add those and just call .Show() or something but I couldn’t figure that out. You'd need a type helper for every type that you might specialize with and all those would need to be in scope during the declaration (not specialization!) of your generic as otherwise they wouldn't be found during specialization.
