Open the custom manager (XXX_CustomManager) and replace its source code with this code:

   Begin_Com Role(*EXTENDS #VF_AC036O)

...

   

  
   Define_Evt Name(ChangeBackgroundImage) 
   Define_Map For(*input) Class(#PRIM_ALPH) Name(#ImageName)

...

   

  
   Define_Evt Name(ChangeBackgroundTextStyle) 
   Define_Map For(*input) Class(#PRIM_vs.Style) Name(#ToStyle) Pass(*BY_REFERENCE)

...

   

  
   Mthroutine Name(RequestChangeBackgroundImage) 
   Define_Map For(*input) Class(#PRIM_ALPH) Name(#ImageName) 
   Signal Event(ChangeBackgroundImage) Imagename(#ImageName) 
   Endroutine

...

   

  
   Mthroutine Name(RequestlChangeBackgroundTextStyle) 
   Define_Map For(*input) Class(#PRIM_vs.Style) Name(#ToStyle) Pass(*BY_REFERENCE) 
   Signal Event(ChangeBackgroundTextStyle) Tostyle(#ToStyle) 
   Endroutine

...

   

  
   End_Com

 
The custom manager now defines ChangeBackGroundImage and ChangeBackgroundTextStyle events which it signals when requested. Complile

Compile and close the custom manager.
