Ok I've played around with this some more and I've managed to populate the subitems. But they don't display at all for some reason.

Can someone please help me figure out what I'm missing?

Here's the code I'm working with:

[code] Dim Men As MediaPortal.GUI.Library.GUIButtonControl
Dim Itm As MediaPortal.GUI.Library.GUIListItem
Dim x As Integer

Men = GetControl(24)
Men.Visible = True
MediaPortal.GUI.Library.GUIButtonControl.ClearControl(GetID, Men.GetID)

For x = 0 To 10

Itm = New MediaPortal.GUI.Library.GUIListItem("test" & x)
Men.AddSubItem(Itm)

Next
Itm = Men.GetSubItem(0)
MsgBox(Itm.Label)

Itm = Nothing
Men = Nothing[/code]

I've also tried using the Add method, but they are not selectable and appear to have to be manually positioned which I'd rather not do. It makes more sense to me for the positioning to be handled by the screen file.
