Icon Images
The icon images have changed on my computer screen and task bar, how do I change them back to the original ?
Hello raj890,
I see that you are having a problem with the icon images on your computer. I would like to help with this issue but I need some information.
Can you provide the model and product number of the computer? Here is a link showing how to find that information.
What operating system are you using?
Have all the icons changed on the screen?
Do they open the correct program?
How long have your been having the problem?

How to make an icon image using Photoshop
I found out how to do this recently so I decided that I wanted to make a tut for those who don't know how to make an icon image. This icon image is for the libraries tab on your computer. Under the libararies tab there is Music, Pictures, Documents, and Photos
First you will need the ICO (Icon image format) Format extension for photoshop which can be downloaded here:
http://www.telegraphics.com.au/svn/icoformat/trunk/dist/README.html
The download link and tutorial on how to install it is all in the link above.
Once you have that all set you can now launch photoshop to create your icon image. Once you have launched it, create a new document with the size as in the image below.
[IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/256x256_zpsbf3dcf8e.png~original[/IMG]
Create the image you want. I used a simple one by using the custom shape tool by pressing "U" on your keyboard and with the
basic blending options.
[IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/IconImage_zpsd788c709.png~original[/IMG]
The reason why the image is pixelated is because it is an icon image. Since the image is only 256x256 pixels when you zoom in on it that will get you the pixely result. The reason why I zoomed in is so you can see it. But don't worry this is no the end result. Just continue reading and you will see.
So once you have created the icon go ahead and press
file>save as>(under format choose the ICO)>and choose the name that you want to name it. And save it in your C: drive. You will see why to save it in your C: drive in a sec.
[IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/SampleicoPic_zpsd252bfba.png~original[/IMG]
So now that you have created the icon and saved it now you can create the new library.
[IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/NewLibrary_zps8ca703b2.png~original[/IMG]
Name the library whatever you want I named it "Sample" for tutorial purposes. Notice how it gives you a default boring icon image for your library.
[IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Sample1_zpsb5472840.png~original[/IMG]
So now once you have created and named your library now it is time to get the icon image into place.
Go to computer/c: Drive/users/YOU/ And now once you have reached this area you will need to access a hidden folder named "appdata" to do so press "Alt" then a menu bar will show. Click
tools>folder options>and view. Find the option to view hidden folders then press apply then ok. Now we shall continue so AppData>Roaming>Microsoft>Windows>Libraries
Now you should see all the libraries including the one you just created.
[IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/showhiddenfolder_zpsad4a3c94.png~orig inal[/IMG]
[IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Libraries_zpsf6243bc0.png~original[/IMG]
Once you have reached your destination then open a new text document with notepad and drag the library you just created in notepad. The result should look like this:
[IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Notepad_zps251a86f0.png~original[/IMG]
once you have reached this point click at the end of the second to last line down then press enter and enter in this information
<iconReference>c:\"NAME OF ICO FILE YOU CREATED IN PS".ico</iconReference>
Example:
[IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/iconreference_zps1c1a3eca.png~origina l[/IMG]
Once you have entered that information go to file>save and the icon image should appear on the library you created.
[IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Finished_zps267f893a.png~original[/IMG]
Now you are officially finished. Go and spread the news and joy. Bye for now
-Dusty951512It is Windows only because all those screen shots are exclusively Windows, the file structure and paths do not resemble those of the Mac in the least. As a Mac user, there's nothing I could take from your tutorial. Sorry,
No drives named with letters like C: on the Mac, for instance. No backward slashes either, ever. No such paths either. No "Notepad" on the Mac, we use TextEdit; but such a text editor is not remotely needed on the Mac to make and/or edit icons. Etc.
Those folders are not even called "Libraries" on the Mac… Nothing resembling your tutorial at all.
The icons in the Finder's Sidebar are not customizable at all in recent version of OS X.

How Do I get icons image directory to work in a JAR file?
Yes, I must admit after going through the tutorial and other stuff I am stiil stumped
I have an application that uses the jlfgr icons for the toolbar, and it works fine as long as i actually run it from the directory that it is in.
I would like to put in into a jAr file, and be able to execute it from other places.
I have a Directory named PhoneBook
in that are the classes I use
AddressBook - the main class
PersonEntry - The 'data class'
and various other things like FileFilters.....
inside that directory there are two more:
images - contains all the icon images
Data - where the default 'database' entries are stored.
I use code like this:
private void fillToolBar( JToolBar bar )
Dummy = new JButton(new ImageIcon("images/New16.gif"));
Dummy.setActionCommand("New");
Dummy.addActionListener(this);
Dummy.setToolTipText("New");
bar.add( Dummy );
// etc etc
to get all the icons into the toolbar
I have made a Jar file that has all the classes and all the directorys with the icons in it
and so the program runs, but does not get the icons for the toolbar, I just get a whole load of 'dud' buttons.....
AS this is the first time i've ever got the GUI to look right rather than just the code functioning properly
I'd like to get the whole thing in a working Jar file
So Could someone show me Step By Step, How I get my classes and images into a Jar file
so that i can from a different directory go
java - jar Phone.jar
and have the GUI come up with all the images, assuming I'm totally thickheaded when it comes to Jar files.?
I also can't get the images to show up if I merely run the 'program' from another directory than the one it is compiled in
I can get the program to run, just not access the images with something like
java -cp blah/blah/blah AddressBook
{the main class is AddressBook }
the data directory can be anywhere as I use a JFileChooser to allow the user to open and save desired files.
I really would appreciate some clear workable help. {though I'm running out of Duke Dollars...}What you need is a correct path to the directory
inside of the jar. This can be accomplished by adding
a line to your main program like this:
URL
url=myProgram.class.getResource("images/New16.gif");
Dummy = new JButton(new ImageIcon(URL));
where myProgram.class is the name of the class
file that contain the main method.
Hope this helps....
;o)
PS: I don't want your dukes...I got them coming out of
my ears!
O.K, that works thank you.
I put something like:
for all the 'buttons' in the toolbar
URL url = null;
Class ThisClass = this.getClass();
url=ThisClass.getResource("images/New16.gif");
Dummy = new JButton(new ImageIcon(url));
Dummy.setActionCommand("New");
Dummy.addActionListener(this);
Dummy.setToolTipText("New Database");
bar.add( Dummy );
etc for all the rest of the 'buttons'
After Reading the API docs on URL's etc I'm still not sure as to why it works, but it does....
I am able now to place the class files in a jar along with the images and it all works fine
although now I don't quite follow all my code....................
I assume that
url=ThisClass.getResource("images/New16.gif");
returns some sort of 'relative url ' ???
Thanks for the help though. -
I see a distortion icon image in Windows 8.1 but not in windows 8
I saw distorted icon image in windows 8.1 but not in Windows 8. This bug doesn't affect Windows 8.1 functionality but causes some icons to look ugly, distorted, fuzzy.This bug can be seen in "Delete confirmation dialog box". The
folder icon in delete confirmation dialog box will look distorted and ugly. Black edges will appear around the icon and the icon will not look correct.The same thing also happens in "Send To" menu.
Also heard that this bug is not related to graphics card driver or any other thing.
Hope windows will take necessary actions to solve this bug as soon as possible so that users like us can be satisfied with the new windows 8.1.Try running SFC scan. Refer the following link for more information:

How to set folder icon image in OS X Lion?
I set my folder's icon image in OS X Leopard before, but I don't know how to do that in Lion. In Leopard you simply copy the icon image from an Info window of a file, and paste that into the folder's icon image in the top left corner of its Info window. In Lion I don't see the icon of the file in its Info window as a preview, but rather I see only a generic JPG file icon. Any ideas?
Can you explain why there was no thumbnail for that file?
The OS does not create or add thumbnails, previews, nor custom icons to images or other files. Although it displays files with what appears to be a custom icon, it is not part of the file itself; it is created on the fly, just for display. Since it is not part of the file, it does not appear in the Get Info window.
Back in OS 9 days when you downloaded an image file from the web, either via drag and drop or via the download mechanism, the image file would typically be placed on the drive as a QuickTime image with both a custom icon and a preview image added to it.
I skipped earlier versions of OS X, and started with Snow Leopard, so don't know about earlier versions of OS X. Apparently the auto creation and addition of a custom icon and preview have been dropped in later versions in favor of using Preview to generate a temporary (for display only) custom icon on the fly. One result of this is that image file sizes are kept reasonably small - adding a suite of custom icons and a preview image to the file itself increases the file size a lot; it's not unusual for those additions to double the file size, or more. -
How to change icon images in Mavericks?
I am having difficulty changing some Desktop Icon images in Mavericks.
Some times I can (Macintosh HD), sometimes I cannot (Applications folder or alias), for example.
Never had problem prior to 10.9To change your Applications folder icon:
In Finder, press shift-command-G, paste in the following and press Go..
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources/ApplicationsFol derIcon.icns
Change the name of ApplicationsFolderIcon.icns to ApplicationsFolderIcon.icns.backup
Confirm this change by selecting Use .backup and enter your password
Move the .icns file you want to use for your Applications folder and rename it ApplicationsFolderIcon.icns
Enter your password when prompted
Restart your computer, open Terminal, type
killall Finder
and press return.
You should have a new Applications folder icon.
To revert, delete the new file, change the name of the original file back to ApplicationsFolderIcon.icns and follow the rest of the steps above.
[NB: This change may not stick through future OS updates] -
PDF icon images appear on desktop, but not in folders?
I just updated to Windows 7. Before the update I could only view pdf icons on the desktop and inside folders would be a screenshot pdf icon image of the file. This was very helpful when using a lot of pdf files.
NOW, after installing Windows 7, I have the exact opposite. I can see PDF image icons on my desktop, but when I go into a folder, I get the standard Adobe pdf red-white icon (no image).
Has anyone experienced this? Ive googled this and Im not the only one with this problem. Has anyone found a fix for this?
Thanks
Update: I forgot to add that PowerPoint files, jpegs and bmp files still work and you can still see the preview images. Just not PDFs.function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}

What happens if you open an older PDF in Acrobat and do a "save as"? Does the icon come back?
graffiti - thanks for the reply. I did as you suggested but it didnt work. Now some icons are showing up but I dont know why nor do I know if this is a adobe issue or a windows 7 issues. While googling it looks like each side is blaming the other. Here is a screen shot. Some icons appear and one does not. I opened it and re-saved it but still doesnt show a thumbnail.

Custom Icon Images for Folders in KM
Hello Everyody,
I have to display folders such as Pesonal Documents, Public documents, Recently used, Favourites etc which are there in the entry point repository in KM. Right now all these folders are being displayed with the default icon image specified. I want to replace these default images with custom images but couldnt see any property where i can change the image path for these folders. I checked the details of all these folders and even went through the properties but there it shows only the default image name speciefied for that folder and no active settings where i can change the image path for custom icon. Kindly suggest how to implement custom image for KM folder icons.
Thanking you all in advance,
Regards,
Sarabjeet.Hi,
If I understood, you have a KM navigation iview, where some folders apperar. You want to change the icon for each of them differently.
For this do the following:
First have a look into the KM.navigation iview and get the layout set property. Go to System config->KM->Content management->User interface->Settings->LayoutSet and find the layout set you are using. Go to appropriate resource renderer and check the "<b>Icon setting</b>". Change it to: <b>iconreplace</b>.
Now get the KM details for your folders and change the <b>IconSource</b> property to your image Example:
/etc/public/mimes/images/add.gif
Voila...the icons for these folders are changed!
Hope this is your case.

how get File Type Icon Image (Windows )
FileSystemView.getSystemIcon( File );works in swing application, can not be used for javafx.scene.image.ImageView;Hmm, good question.
Looking at the FileChooser, it looks like the native chooser is used so possibly the JFX guys didn't have to expose access to the icons to make it work. You might want someone to confirm, but my guess is there is no equivalent yet in JFX.
Assuming there's nothing, you could try the hacks in here to convert the image: Image conversion between AWT and FX
Failing that you're probably looking at raising a JIRA feature request to get it in a future release.

"Icon image formats used for iconic buttons can be .ico files at design time, but must be GIF or JPEG format at runtime. There is no other restriction of this related to deployment."
Read the above statement in an STS test paper and was wondering this is true. How does it work is it that the .ico are automatically converted at runtime or do the other extensions need to exist at runtime.
Incidentially does anyone know if there is a good source for forms icon files hiding out on Oracle.com
ThanksWebForms usually do not show the icons at design time, but with little configuration we can display them, and since webforms will only show only GIF and PNG files (no JPEG) the design time icons are a bit fuzzy, so you can use .ico files for design time and .gif or .png for runtime.
You must have two sets of icons if you want to view the icons at design time.

Can the graphic used in a desktop icon be changed? Forgive me if this the wrong forum. Are other good general Apple forums available?
Hi!
Are you attempting to use the icon from one file to paste to another file? If so, try this:
Highlight the file with the icon you want to use and key in cmd+i to bring up Get Info. Click on the icon at the top of the Get Info wondow and key in cmd+c to copy it. Highlight the file that you want to paste the icon to, do cmd+i, highlight the icon in the get Info window, then key in cmd+v to paste it to this file. The icon will be the proper size to begin with, since it was a file icon to begin with. (The way shown in the preceding post should also work, but insure that you highlight and copy the graphic icon image first, before trying to paste it into the other file.)
If you want to use a custom graphic that is not an icon, I found a simple way to convert file preview images to icons using Pic2Icon. I keep it in the Dock and drop a graphics file (or folder's worth of graphic files) on it and it immediately changes the generic icons to icons with the graphics on them. This freeware utility was developed by SugarCube Software, but is no longer available on the web, even though Googling will provide plenty of links. However, they were nice enough not to originally restrict it's redistribution and I have a copy on my iDisk if you want it. The link is posted below and the archived file will immediately begin downloading if you click on it. (I'll leave the link active for a few days or so before disabling it.)

You can also create such preview icons via Photoshop, if you have it...

I just try to upgrade my 6i application to 10g web base. I sucess to run my application on browser. However, I cannot show icons image. I have followed the doc "Forms9iAS Forms Services How to deploy Icons", but still failed.
Is there any doc teach me how to deploy icons in Forms Services 10g? (not 9i)
or any hints can tell me?
Thanks a lot !!!Hello,
1) if you choose to have icons as gif, use the following in a batch file:
rem====
jar cvfm iconeweb.jar *.gif --- name the file: jar_icons.bat
rem=====
put the icons images in a directory together with jar_icons.bat
2) run jar_icons.bat
you should see a new file in the directory: iconeweb.jar
copy that jar file in the directory /forms/java of your developer install directory.
3) open the formsweb.cfg which you can find in /forms/server in the directory where you installed developer 10g
Look for the line that has: archive_jini
Add the following: at the end of this line: ,iconeweb.jar
save formsweb.cfg
if you are running your app from a named config, you should also make the change to that section too.
4) restart your browser that the new jar is downloaded.
5) open your java console: it is the small coffee icon you see in the systray. In it, you see a line with iconeweb, If you don't see it, it means the jar file is not found. Then, you should make sure that the forms/java path is indeed in the forms_path registry key .
