IDE depends on gb.form.stock because by default it uses the "Gambas" icon theme, which is stored in gb.form.stock. > > 1) check it if you know that you need it.

As for checking gb.form.stock automatically as soon as a stock icon is used: this is not right. A stock icon is not located in gb.form.stock necessarily. It depends on the value of Application.Theme. Only the "Gambas" theme is stored in gb.form.stock.
