Group member options

[Celestian]

I've been tinkering with my own group menu options using the SOE EQ2 UIbuilder and ran into a odd problem.

I started off with the default eq2ui_mainhud_groupmembers.xml file to start.

I created an effects page, name page and FKey page.

I then added a page to effects for each effect (1-4).

I then added an icon and button to each effect page.

Looking at others work I can see that they didnt need to use the DynamicData option to show the Effects (such as /GameData.Group.Group_1.Effect1 for member 1 noxious effect)... However when I try to use the icon Effect1 without a DynamicData field it will not work (just shows a grey blob). If I use the DynamicData option it works fine.

I'd much perfer not to use the dynamicdata option because it makes it easier to work on this. I can get the items working for group member 1 then copy it down to the others.

What are the limits and/or procedures to do this?
