Hi again, 

UIPanels are not meant to be nested (at least I didn't design it that way!), so I'm interested in your use case for that and how are you implementing it. I can see you would have problems destroying them, but there might be other things that don't work as you think, just because again, when I thought about UIPanels I always conceived them as top-level widgets.

It would be really useful if you could share your code and/or images to see how you are using them nested. 

Best,

Heya again,

Thanks for explaining that the UIPanels weren't meant for that. I used them to create panels with a background sprite, but now that you said that I was doing something unintended- I double-checked the docs and found that a UIGroup can have a background sprite as well.

I guess the term 'panel' gave me the illusion that they would be similar to WinForms Panels, but they're more akin to Forms there I guess. I've switched to UIGroups for my purposes, but will leave the code snippet up since it may be useful to someone else for other reasons.

Thanks again for your quick support!
