Anyone see this issue with custom file icons?

Post by murdock01 »

I don't know when this happened because everything seems to be working fine, but I did have a point in which my folder icons switched to another icon for no reason.
When I went to add a custom icon definition I saw question marks in the list for custom file icons (see screenshot - I had more before the below experiment). Almost all the definitions had ?'s but a couple did show the actual icons.
The custom file icon dialog does seem to take a while to open. This happens on two different machines but I do keep the XY folder in sync because I work on both. I cleaned out all the definitions and closed XY. Then I restarted XY and added the definition shown in the screenshot. As you can see in the screenshot, the custom folder icon is defined and working but the dialog shows a ? instead of the icon.
Hope this is not something stupid on my part but I can seem to figure it out.

Thanks for any help.

Are you sure that you don't have a space between
">" and "<xyicons>" because that would create your scenario. All icons
are displayed correctly in the list and tree but you get a question mark
inside the PFI dialog...

Update. I just downloaded the latest beta into a directory and ran it. The only thing I changed was to add the custom folder icon like in the screenshot and I got the same result.

Update 2: Thanks Highend!!! :appl:
Is something that has changed at some point because I have not changed anything in a while?
Oh well, sorry for taking up space with my little stupid problem.
But again this is just the best forum for the best app out there.

Thanks Again !!

No clue, can't see anything related in the changelog.
But I use the same (and only) entry since years^^
