For the exe generated, the Icon is not displayed. I added the Icon in the project Properties --> Make tab --> Application --> Icon. I am using Vb 6.0
I can see the icon in the project properties. but the same is not displayed when the exe is generated.
I added the icon in the resource file too. But its not displayed.
I added the image for it.
Any ideas on displaying the icon for the exe generated?
We've had problems with that in the past. I'm pretty sure it has to do with your icon dimensions being out of scope. Hack workaround - add a dummy form (frmIconHolder) with the 32x32 icon you want as the icon for that form. Then in the project Properties --> Make tab --> Application --> Icon, set it to this new form.
There are 2 methods to setting your exe's icon:
1: Set your Main Form's icon to the icon you want to use for the exe. On the make tab, from the Application Icon drop-down, select your form that has the icon you want to use. Compile.
2: Using a resource file. To do this, check out this forum post. Using this method, you have to use icons with max 256 colors.
The empirically-found boundaries for VB6 icons are: ICO format on ly, 48x48 in size, 16/24-bit colours
Make sure that your Icon does not exceed 256 colors and it has both 16x16 and 32x32 images in it.

I am trying to change the user icon image on Desktop navigation bar. Is there a way to change it? The image to use is not available in FA(Font Apex) default.
I also tried to use the below but once save and run, icon was removed and the image was not appearing.
Normally, if you are using Universal Theme, you would rely on the FA icons you have available in APEX.
Then, to change this
Shared Components --> Navigation Bar List --> Desktop Navigation Bar
Press in &APP_USER ( sequence 10 ) and you will enter this section
Select the picture you want ( in my example I would select the fa-user-clock ), save your changes and run the application.
However, if you want to use a custom image, you need to be sure that the picture fits exactly in the same space within the desktop bar. If that is not the case, Apex will remove automatically the image and will show nothing.
We are using sap.ui.commons.Image control in our project and we need to set a font icon as the source.
The sap.ui.commons.Image is used in multiple places and are used in composite controls as well. However, we need to use icon-fonts as the source to the control. We could set SVG/PNG to the source and it works fine. However, we need to use icon-font.
Can anyone help?
<c:Image src='sap-icon://add' />
You will either have to download the icon and store it in your project
Or use a control that has an icon property for example a button or icon tab
I'm developing a FinderSync extension based on the following documentation:
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/General/Conceptual/ExtensibilityPG/Finder.html
I'm failing to add a sidebar icon.
I've followed the steps: Created the .iconset folder and filled it with the requested PNGs. Added the folder to my info.plist etc.
But I don't see any icon in the sidebar on my monitored folders.
Context menu, toolbar button and badges works fine.
What could I be missing? Is there any limitation that the documentation fails to mention? Anything tricky with step 4?
Apparently its indeed extremely important to obey Apple's constraints regarding the icons:
they must be
"monochromatic images that are drawn just using black and
transparency"
To my surprise, when a designer gave me pngs that complied with the mentioned above, everything worked like a charm.
Please comment if you encounter any other difficulty, as the documentation is very lacking.
The documentation mentions several exceptions where your app icon will not replace the folder's icon:
The sidebar icons you provide will replace the default folder icons in the Finder’s sidebar for any of the root folders that your extension is monitoring.
This icon does not replace the icon for any folders contained by your monitored folder.
It also does not replace the icon for any system folders that you may be monitoring (for example, Documents, Desktop, Applications, and Downloads).

I am creating a property sheet shell extension and want to have a little icon to set off my property tab from the standard system tabs. Unfortunately, my icon is being rendered almost entirely in grey.
Original image:
In the property sheet tab:
At first I thought this was somehow my problem, but then I saw that TortoiseSVN appears to have the same problem:
This happens in both Windows 7 and Windows 8.
Does anyone know why these images are appearing so muted? Also, does anyone have any hints on how to make the icon look good in spite of this colorlessness?
The PropertySheet function initialises its tab control with a 16 color (ILC_COLOR) ImageList and copies the supplied icon for each page into it. There doesn't seem to be a way to override this and supply your own ImageList (or to specify the bit depth of the created ImageList). Presumably this is a legacy of the original Windows 95 code that never got updated as things moved on.
Instead of Property Sheets, you can use Tab Control, which makes tabs management more flexible and clear. And of course you can use any type of icons, because you have to create your own ImageList.
Here you can read about Tab Controls:

And here you can access example usage of Tab Controls:
Icons in Win32 Property Pages are ugly - 4 bit icons
Is there any way to change default font of controls in winforms.
I must change font in about hundred font in recent project and it's coming next project with other fonts and I wanna at start setting properly fonts.
You should be able to select all the controls that are part of the form with Ctrl + A. Then change the font property. Or you could write something that would do that for you in the code behind.
