Iconic buttons in oracle 9i

hi all
I'm using iconic buttons in oracle 9i. I can perfectly see icons in forms builder but they disappear when I run my web forms.
What shold I add or configure to display icons at runtime??
thank you.

Quoted by Francois
At design time you see the .ICO files and at run time the .GIF files.
So, you must have the 2 versions (ICO and GIF) of the images files.

Iconic Buttons in Oracle Apps 11i

Hi,
I need to create an iconic button in one of my form. We are using Forms6i and are on apps veriosn 11.5.10. I want to use the same image as used for the 'Help' button on standard Toolbar. Where is this image file located? I tried to search for the toolbar in TEMPLATE.fmb, but couldn't find it.
Any help in this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ashish

Iconic Buttons

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!

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.

Where is default icons location in oracle form 10g

hi,
Can anybody please tell me, where is the default(given below) icons location in oracle form 10g. I want to user that icons in my form.
Image: !c:\icons.gif!
thanks
mohan

Hi,
Is your problem solved?
This issue occurs because gif images by default are not still images. These are graphical interchange images, i.e. images depicting some kind of action/motion.
If I am not wrong then just to test this out if you open the gif image you are looking at, in pbrush then image will appear in a corner. Now if you modify that image such that you copy only the icon in the corner and then save the copied icon in a new file in gif format then you will be able to see that image in the centre of button, rather over complete button.
Hope this helps!

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

Layout Editor crashes when loading icon for iconic button (11gR2 patch 1)

Using Forms 11gR2 Patch 1, 64 bit on Solaris 10, the Layout Editor crashes when reading the .GIF file to display an iconic button. (The workaround is not to set UI_ICON and UI_ICON_EXTENSION in the frmbld.sh script. In that case, the Layout Editor displays an empty iconic button, but at least it does not crash.)
The truss output from frmbld says,
5078/1:          open("/usr/local/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_FRHome1/ohs/icons/bomb.gif", O_RDONLY) = 24
5078/1:          lseek(24, 0, SEEK_END)                    = 308
5078/1:          lseek(24, 0, SEEK_CUR)                    = 308
5078/1:          lseek(24, 0, SEEK_SET)                    = 0
5078/1:          lseek(24, 161, SEEK_SET)               = 161
5078/1:          fstat(24, 0xFFFFFD7FFFDF9440)               = 0
5078/1:          fstat(24, 0xFFFFFD7FFFDF9390)               = 0
5078/1:          ioctl(24, TCGETA, 0xFFFFFD7FFFDF9400)          Err#25 ENOTTY
5078/1:          read(24, "048F 0C9 IA7B8 X $C0BBDF".., 8192)     = 147
5078/1:          Incurred fault #6, FLTBOUNDS %pc = 0xFFFFFD7FFDF3FB42
5078/1:          siginfo: SIGSEGV SEGV_MAPERR addr=0x0000004C
5078/1:          Received signal #11, SIGSEGV [caught]
5078/1:          siginfo: SIGSEGV SEGV_MAPERR addr=0x0000004C
(These are consecutive lines from the truss output, so it would appear that read()'ing from the bomb.gif file -- or any other .GIF file for that matter -- causes the FLTBOUNDS fault.)
The hs_err_pid*.log file in the Forms home directory says,
# Problematic frame:
# C [libuimotif.so.0+0x13fb42] uiimkxu_Support+0x4f42
(If it matters, Solaris is running in a VMware virtual machine on Windows 7.)
Did I find a bug?

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?
Thanks

Iconic Buttons on Web

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.
