"Multiple 50x50 images" sounds like you are trying to make a game. <div class="gmail_quote">On Apr 24, 2013 2:00 AM, "Laurent" <<a href="mailto:laurent.orseau@gmail.com">laurent.orseau@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> <div dir="ltr"><div>It works for me (Ubuntu), replacing your pictures with strings, although the placement is probably not what you'd expect: it is not top-left-position based and the margin depends on the previous elements. </div>You can put all the images inside a panel% instead of directly into the frame: all the containees are superimposed in a panel%, so the margins will work as you expect. Or you can create horizontal panels containing vertical panels and just place the images one after the other in each vertical panel. Or you can use a canvas% to display the images at specific locations, but this is a somewhat different approach.

I'm trying to load multiple 50x50 ".bmp" images into a frame, specifying both the horizontal and vertical positions. Specifying the horiz-margin for a message works fine, but the vert-margin does not. Is this an error, or am I missing something? I'm using Racket 3.3.
