I totally missed the "paint" keyword in the dictionary but all is well now.
The reason I was doing this is because took a PNG snapshot of a group control into an image control, then tried to resize the image control, but I found that the image lost definition very quickly. My solution was to export to a file, resize it in Photoshop, then import it. Maybe there's a way to do the resizing in LC without losing definition?
