It would be helpful to see what shows up in the ascx file. That is the one that really counts. Could you attach that file to a reply?
This is what is generated in the header:
<%@ Control language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" Explicit="True" Inherits="DotNetNuke.UI.Skins.Skin" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="SEARCH" Src="~/Admin/Skins/Search.ascx" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="NAV" Src="~/Admin/Skins/Nav.ascx" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="LEFTMENU" Src="~/Admin/Skins/LeftMenu.ascx" %>
This is what is generated at the place where the object tag was:
<dnn:LEFTMENU runat="server" id="dnnLEFTMENU" Width="165px" ShowOnlyCurrent="RootItem" MaxLevel="2" EnableEmbeddedSkins="false" Skin="MinimalExtropy" />

Some more: There isn't good documentation on this skin object, and it appears that is fairly new. It is a wrapper for a Telerik control.
You can find the code for this object in the admin\skins directory. If you understand VB, you can study the .vb file to see what's going on with the properties.
The "skin" property is passed to a similar property of the Telerik object, so you might look at Telerik's documentation for details, assuming that you want to do that sort of thing.
Yes, but shouldn't copy-pasting the object out of Minimal Entropy just...work? At this point, I'm just trying to get the control to show up at all, after all it already appears just fine in the Minimal Entropy Left Menu skins.
