The template resizes just fine after testing it with multiple lines on the command prompt.

It seems the image you're placing within the icon is having resizing issues. You'll want to provide that part of your script for the best help.

my other 8 buttons are done the same way just the word 'precache' is replaced!
Code: [show] | [select all] lua
GUI.PrecacheIcon = Geyser.Label:new({
  name = "GUI.PrecacheIcon",
  width = "82%",
  height = "78%",
},GUI.Icon9)
GUI.PrecacheIconCSS	 = CSSMan.new([[
  margin: 2px;
  border-image: url("]]..getMudletHomeDir():gsub("\\","/")..[[/images/precacheon.png");
]])
GUI.PrecacheIcon:setStyleSheet(GUI.PrecacheIconCSS:getCSS())

It is because you're not setting your x,y position. So the images are placed one atop the other, the last of which is Icon9 so its shown on the top of the stack.

I don't set position or size with the GUI.Icon# because they're added to a Geyser HBox (GUI.Header) which handles the position and size for you. If you're adding your label to a label, size AND position must be set.

No. You just need to specify x and y like so:
Code: [show] | [select all] lua
GUI.PrecacheIcon = Geyser.Label:new({
  name = "GUI.PrecacheIcon",
  x = 0, y = 0,
  width = "82%",
  height = "78%",
},GUI.Icon9)
 
You could even put these in a for loop if you have a local table with all the icon names...
Code: [show] | [select all] lua
--Haven't tested. Written on the forum.
local names = {"Bashing","Combat","Mass","Rebound","Arena","Quests","Leyline","Room","Precache"}
for k,v in pairs(names) do
  GUI[v.."Icon"] = Geyser.Label:new({
    name = "GUI."..v.."Icon",
    x = 0, y = 0,
    width = "82%",
    height = "78%",
  },GUI["Icon"..k])
end

Would that not create labels over the top of others? Unless there's something I am not seeing here, a Geyser vbox/hbox would be the way forward here.

I did x = 0, y = 0, on them all and rebooted etc and still having the issue..

end

I'll test the loop later once I figure it out, :)

Perhaps they want to keep the thin white border from the template around their image? Another label must be added for an image to have a border.
