- Hi Bruce - Currently it is difficult for people using an icons-only active bar to switch to the desired window if Debug and Pproconf are both open.
I suggest making some variations on the current Powerpro icon so that the Debug window, for example, has its own icon (maybe the standard PowerPro icon plus a D). Similarly, it would be good for pproconf to have its own icon (maybe the standard PowerPro icon plus a checkmark). The default icon in the file associations for Notes and Scripts could also be like the main icon plus a N or S. Please see http://groups.yahoo.com/group/power-pro/files/Icons_and_cursors/ AlansIcons1.zip for some draft ideas, Set1 based on the current icon, Set2 based on the new icon proposed long ago by Sue Chastain. If you like, I could supply a set of icons in whatever sizes and color depths required. Currently the icons in powerpro.exe and pproconf.exe all have different sizes and color depths. I suggest they all should be 16x16 256 colors and 32x32 256 colors. ________________________________________________________ - Hi to all - I just uploaded AlansPPicons1.zip You can use these icons in various ways. [1] Use them in menus and bar buttons, for example: PP1config.ico for command: Configure CommandLists PP1quit.ico for command: Shutdown PowerPro or: Shutdown PowerPro noconfirm PP1help.ico for: guess what [2] Use them in config: Command Lists, Setup, Defaults for all bars and menus, Special Lists "Active: use this list to set non-standard icons for active buttons" Create a new command list, maybe called ActiveBarIcons. For each item in the list, the Name is the target caption such as "PowerPro Debug" or "Help for Powerpro" and set the icon to your choice. No command. [3] Use them as the default icon in file associations: Edit the paths, then save as ppicons.reg, then merge - - - - - - - - REGEDIT4 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PowerPro.Note\DefaultIcon] @="C:\\Shells\\PowerPro\\images\\PP1note.ico,0" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PowerPro.Script\DefaultIcon] @="C:\\Shells\\PowerPro\\images\\PP1script.ico,0" - - - - - - - - [4] If you are tempted to replace any of the icons in your own copy powerpro.exe or pproconf.exe, beware that the icons in AlansPPicons1.zip are not the same size and color depth as the icons in the exes.
