Basically I think it should behave the same as color and pattern. Create a button give it a backPattern set it's backColor to empty It keeps it's backPattern set it's backColor to black The backPattern is now empty and the backColor is now black So the same for filename... setting an imported image's filename should continue to work if you are setting it to a non-empty value. If you are setting it to empty it shouldn't do anything because the property is already empty... So if you want to clear an imported image you set the text to empty... if you want to clear a referenced image then you set the filename to empty... That's my thoughts anyway, I could work around this just in the properties array setprop but I think the inconsistency between how color/pattern behaves and filename/text behaves should be addressed.
