It is because QtfRichObject is only temporary reference to the RichObject.

You are using this reference, but then parsing qtf on Button paint, when RichObject does not exist anymore.

One possible solution:

#include <CtrlLib/CtrlLib.h>

using namespace Upp;

GUI_APP_MAIN
{
	Button button;
	
	{
		DrawingDraw dd(63, 187);
		dd.DrawImage(0,0,CtrlImg::exclamation());
	
		static Size ppi(72,72);// = ScreenDraw(true).GetPixelsPerInch();
		QtfRichObject qrdd(CreateDrawingObject(dd.GetResult(), Size(63*ppi.cx/10, 187*ppi.cy/10), Size(63*ppi.cx/10, 187*ppi.cy/10)));
	
		String qtf;
		qtf << qrdd;
		
		button.SetLabel("\1" + AsQTF(ParseQTF(qtf)));
	}
	TopWindow win;
	win.Add(button.SizePos());
	win.Run();
}

Note: I agree the situation is a little bit tricky, some widgets parse QTF on set (like RichTextView) - this would be no problem for these. Others parse QTF during Paint. Generally, everywhere where QTF needs '\1' prefix, it is being parsed during Paint.
