For windows after the advent of Vista, a program now needs the main icon in 10 different variants: 16 colours : 16x16, 32x32, 48x48 256 colours: 16x16, 32x32, 48x48 32 bit (8 bits per RGB + 8 bit alpha) : 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 256x256 There is also a 24x24 that is used for the Start menu but MS states that this doesn't need to be provided as Windows will create it by resizing. Some icon folks think that the result sucks and that if supplied Windows will use the 24x24. The 256x256 image is stored using PNG compression. Note that the Visual Studio Tools can't handle the largest size yet (will come in the VS2008 'Orcas' release I believe) so third party tools have to be used to add the icon to the executable. MS Info on icons (pre-Vista) : http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms997636.aspx MS Vista Icons : http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa511280.aspx Currently the main executable has two different icons (one for docs) each with 5 different sizes in 256 colours only; 16x16, 24x24, 42,32, 48,48, 64x64. GTK may impose other requirements that I'm not aware of. -- Regards, Graham Bloice _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list Wireshark-dev@wireshark.org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
