More Eric7 Windows weirdness

[Jamie Riotto]

Almost all there. After my mega-clean install, I can't seem to see any
resource management. That is,
in the tab bar above the Project Management File viewer, I see tabs for
'Sources', 'Forms', 'Translations, and 'Others',
but no tab for resources, and It appears as if my icons have disappeared
from the app. However when I look at the
.ui files in Designer (started through eric), I see the icons ok, and
pressing ctrl-R shows them in the preview.

What do I need to do to re-enable the resource system on my new install?
Thanks - jamie
