Re: PlotIconRefInContext doesn't work

I'm thinking the window might be redrawing itself right after your own 
drawing and erasing it.  You could try disabling the window's auto 
displaying and flush the window buffer after your draw to determine if 
this is the case.

I don't know where you're doing the drawing to know if it's safe from 
being erased or not.
