Code: Select all
$items = <<<>>>
1||:nuke
2||%winsysdir%\shell32.dll /10
3||<xyicons>\Apple.ico
>>>;
$sel = inputselect("Select...", $items, <crlf>, 1+2+32+1024+8192, 11:="|");

If I remove " /10" the icon from shell32.dll itself is shown
If done with popupmenu() it works fine with the index:
Code: Select all
$items = <<<>>>
1||:nuke
2||%winsysdir%\shell32.dll /10
3||<xyicons>\Apple.ico
>>>;
$sel = popupmenu($items, 6:=<crlf>, 7:="|");

I don't see any claim in the help that says this would work. That makes it a wish.

The help entry for
popupmenu() doesn't mention explicitly that it supports the /<index> way for icons neither...
Consistency^^

Since on this subject, a similar wish, if not too much hassle, could the icon params of SC inputselect/input also support the index, ie
Code: Select all
$i = "<xy> /4"; inputselect(" ", 4:=1, 9:=$i); input(8:=$i);

Apparently I could make it work without too much hassle, did not thoroughly test though (too much hassle). Hence no mention in change log. Try next beta.
PS: The next beta will be more tolerant about the number of spaces in <xy> /4. Also <xy> /4 will work.

Thanks for adding it, that's great,
...but I just tested it and it seems to be using maybe the 16x16 icon and scaling up.

What icon display size are you expecting in your context?

Well if you use an exe without index it uses what looks to be the normal 32x32 icon, but usually like if you use internal toolbar buttons they are 24x24 @ 100%.

Any reason why the changes didn't make it into the current x32 version?

Well, it's time to leave it behind. Can't do everything twice forever.
