You must edit the register variable UI_ICON and set the path where forms can find the .ico files

Hi
i have icon file which has 150*50 pixel
and i have a button in my form which has size 150*50 pixel (i change the coordinate system in my form from point to pixel)
when i added the icon to the button becomes a square shape and small and located in the middle of the button
and no filling the whole space of button, although both have a same size!
can any one help with that
thanksIf you want a bigger button with full image icon then you may use image item and when-pressed-image trigger.This image button could have any size of image to display and its when-pressed-imagetrigger could be used as when-button-pressed trigger. hope helfull reagrds aaditya

Hi,
I am having a problem with Oracle Forms 6i Iconic Buttons on the web. The icons are appearing OK. But, the icons are not centred in the middle of the buttons. I have tried re-sizing the buttons, but they still appear off to the right.
Any thoughts, you help would be appreciated!Make sure that you use .gif files and that the files in your UI_ICON (registry) path are the correct gifs. Also, make sure that FORMS60_OUTPUT and FORMS60_MAPPING (registry) paths are correct.
Finally, check the setting for clientDPI in your formsweb.cfg file. You may want to play with this a little. -

Hi, Vishal Agrawal
Icon size not more then square of 32. mens 32 by 32
icon path should be full path without extension or following type
C:\icon\save
or
icon\savecompile and test.
Hope this works.. -
NO image on iconic button in Forms Builder
Hello,
I'm using Oracle Forms [32 Bit] Version 9.0.4.0.19.
When I open any .fmb file I dont see any image on iconic buttons.
All my .gif files are in .jar
Is there any way to fix that?The Builder cannot read jar files. Also, only gif, jpg, and ico files are supported for the 9.0.4 and newer Builder. In order to have the Builder find them, you need to set the following environment variables (usually in the Registry):
UI_ICON=<some path to the images>
UI_ICON_EXTENSION=<the file format extension - like gif>
Note that this only applies to seeing the images in the Builder Layout Editor and has nothing to do with a running form.

How to display the iconic buttons on the toolbar in oracle 10g forms
hi experts.
i have done all the settings to display the iconic tool bar in the web. the settings i have done are like this.
Initially i have created a .jar file with name my_icons.jar and pasted in /forms/java folder.
1) modified the I:\DevSuiteHome_1\j2ee\DevSuite\application-deployments\forms\formsweb\orion-web.xml file by adding
<virtual-directory virtual-path="/icons" real-path="I:\aptd\icons" />.
2) Modified the forms.conf file by adding the line
AliasMatch ^/forms/icons/(..*) "I:\aptd\icons/$1"
3) Modified the formsweb.config file by
archive_jini=archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar, my_icons.jar
4) Registry.dat
default.icons.iconpath=icons/
default.icons.iconextension=gif
i did not get the output.
when i run the form through the browser, i could see throught the bottom of the browser that it is taking
http://host:port/forms/java/icons/*.gif
* for diffenent icons name.
but when i run the http://host:port/forms/java/my_icons.jar i could download it.
please suggest the best solution. Its Urgent.thanks a lot sarah. I got it.
but sarah i woild like to know that my real path of the icons is in other drive. but pasting the icons in the oracle/forms/icons will work.
why can't the icons take from the the other drive. And also i have created a jar file. Then why can't it take from the jar file without pasting them in the above mentioned folder.
thanks once agaiin for all. -
How to create iconic buttons in forms 10g.
I am trying to create a iconic buttons, same I am able to do it in forms 6i but not in 10g. And also please give me a proper example of java bean items in forms 10g
dear sunny
are u able to do the iconic button on 10g forms i try but appear the icon on button I have alreay do the following
Runtime Configuration
1) Creating Jar file
i) Once you are ready with your GIF files or JPG files, create a folder called ICONS. You can create this folder anywhere. For e.g. you can create ICONS folder on a C drive under root directory or as a sub-folder under any folder.
ii) Assuming you have created ICONS folder as a root folder on C drive, now copy all your GIF files in this folder.
iii) Go to the DOS prompt and enter cd\
iv) At C:\ prompt enter the following command to create Java Archive File (JAR) called my_icons
Jar ?cvf my_icons.jar icons
(Note: If above command don't run then paste icons foled at C:\DevSuiteHome_1\jdk\bin.)
v) Copy this file in <Forms10g_Home>\Forms\Java folder.
Please remember that having the name of the folder holding GIF/JPG files as ICONS is very important. Because if the folder name is something else, icons will not be displayed in your form at run time.
2) Modify REGISTRY.DAT file
i) Open this file located in <Forms10g_Home>\forms\java\oracle\forms\registry folder.
ii) Append the existing parameter default.icons.iconpath as follows:
default.icons.iconpath=icons/
iii) If you are going to use GIF files as image files for icons, then leave the existing parameter default.icons.iconextension=gif as it is. If you want to use JPG files instead of GIF files, replace GIF with JPG as shown below:
default.icons.iconextension=jpg
3) Modify FORMSWEB.CFG file
This file exists under <Forms10g_Home>\Forms\Server folder.
Append the following existing parameters:
i) imagebase=codebase
ii) archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,frmwebutil.jar,jacob .jar,my_icons.jar
After doing above configurations, create a form and place an icon on the button. Set button's icon property = Yes and give name of icon.
NOTE: This icon shoul be in jar file. If u want to add more icons in jar file then u will have to create JAR file again. Also again place it in <Forms10g_Home>\Forms\Java folder.
pls if u have any solution send me -
Forms Server 6i and iconic buttons
Hi,
I've seen this problem on the discussion boards here, and have followed instructions given, but i still cant get my forms to display iconic buttons. I have converted all my icons to .gif and they seem to be fine.
My wdbsvr.cfg file contains this dirmap for the location of the icon gifs: "C:\ORANT\webdb\images /images/"
and in the registry.dat for forms server i have
default.icons.iconpath=http://rocko/images/
default.icons.iconextension=gif
and in my forms app, I put the icons as "myicon" (without the quotes)
If put http://rocko/images/myicon.gif i get the icon i want. Everything SEEMS to be configured properly, yet I still dont see any icons. I'm using the latest version of JInitiator, in a separate frame. Can anyone see what i'm doing wrong, or give me any help? Please say yes!! :)
thank you
-Tristan
nullHi,
i think u might need to go to JInitiator and check Show Java Console(This will show u all the
Directories and files Forms 6i reads at the time of execution).
Try accessing your form on Browser, u might need to check, does it really reads below directory where u have u'r gif files
C:\ORANT\webdb\images /images/
May this helps u,

Forms Web - Icons not showing up
Hello,
I'm running a form on the web, and I have several iconic buttons. The Oracle Developer 2000 book says that icon image files must be in .gif format, and must reside in the same directory as the html page. So I converted my icons to .gif and placed in the required folder.
On the icon property for each button, I am not specifying a path, just the filename with no extension.
The icon is not showing up. I tried setting the icon filename via set_item_property(button_name, icon_filename, filename)
ON_NEW_BLOCK_INSTANCE and placing the path to where the html file is located. The icon will not show up.
Help?

Use of iconic buttons in forms10g
in forms 6i we are using .ico files for buttons. while in in forms 10g these buttons are not appearing on the form but in layout editor these icons appear. we converted the .ico to gif and then created a jar file of it. in formsweb.cfg we changed archive_jini= frmall_jinit.jar,myAppIcons.jar where myappicons.jar contains the gif files. changed imagebase to codebase. in form the iconic filename is given with relative path and without extension .gif registry.dat is changed to defaulticonpath= d:\abc\myapplcons.jar and default icons.iconextension = gif
Have you amended the file orion-web.xml ?
This is located @
<YOUR_DEVELOPER_HOME>\j2ee\DevSuite\application-deployments\forms\formsweb\orion-web.xml
What you need to amend is in the white paper how to deploy icons under the heading "defining virtual paths in Oracle9iDS" -

Width of Iconic Buttons in the Toolbar Menu
Hello:
We use an embedded toolbar with icons along with menu. Wondering if there is a way to increase the WIDTH of this toolbar? The iconic buttons (where we display gif files) are pretty small.
Is there a way to customize the width on this?

Hello guys,
I need to create Iconic Buttons for Oracle Forms 6i. Now I have two issues :
1) Is there a way to add text to the ICONIC BUTTON ?
2) I have modified the path in the key UI60_ICON under the Windows Registry, but forms doesn't really care, it seems like it doesn't find it. For now I have writing the whole path in the property palette of the Button, but I guess there has to be a more efficient way.I download the zipped file from
http://forms.pjc.bean.over-blog.com/categorie-450786.html
Download the lablediconbutton.zip file
Unzip the file
Edit your /forms/server/formsweb.cfg file
Open the lablediconbutton.fmb module (Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2(Production))
Compile all and run the module
But the icons do not appear at all.
Help!
