A simple little trick :)
Use any dynamic* property of column. Say dynamicbackcolor.
lparameters toColumn
toColumn.Image1.Picture = 'blah blah'
return toColumn.BackColor
This forces a refresh for visible part images. You should keep visible rows as little as possible because it gets time to load images.
