Icons in Forms 9i

Can anybody tell me how to easy way to solve problem with icon in forms 9i. Please write me a way in step by step
Thanks

This is simple.
1. put your icons (.gif) in forms90\java folder
2. change the formsweb.cfg file
(it is imagebase=documentbase)
chnage that imagebase=codebase
3. create an iconic button. icon filename should be exact as the name of the icon. (case sensitive). (i.e. if the icon name is EXIT.gif, the icon file name also should be EXIT.gif)
You will see the icons at the runtime. Hope that helps. if it does not help, i can send you a form displaying icons and the corresponding formsweb.cfg file. Happy coding!!

How to create individual icons in forms 6i

hi,
can anybody give me a hint to create nice-looking buttons/icons in forms 6i ? i tried to create/convert bmp´s, jpg´s, gif´s in *.ico (32 x 32 pixel), but the result´s looking very bad in runtime. forms enlarge it in such a way that i can only see a cutout of the picture.
thanks in advance
kevin

when I create icons, I make screenshots for example from the office tools, then I cut out the icons from those toolbars for open-file, save, ...
after saving them in *.ico (in the old days I used Microangelo) I placed the icon in the upper left section of the 32*32 or centered. That I don't know today.
But this is easy to test for you. Try it

How to Change Default Title and Icon of Forms 5.0 Runtime

Whenever i run Forms 5.0 runtime , it always shows
'Developer 2000 Forms Runtime for Windows 95/ NT'.
If i set a title to the main window then also the above message preceeds my Title of Window.
Is there any way to remove that ????
My Application is ready for delivery but the only problem is this title message. and also,, I want to change my own ICON in place of deafult icon
How to do that

Hi,
You can always change you Window title at runtime.
On Windows, You ALWAYS have a container window (There is an option from 5.0 onwards to avoid this container window) and at least one window in you applciation e.g. window0.
Use the following command to change the title of the MDI window:
set_window_property (FORMS_MDI_WINDOW,title,'My Application');
For window0, try this:
set_window_property ('WINDOW0',title,'Registration of Employee');
Please see all the options available in the online help of forms under SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY.
Bye,
Vani

Display icons in forms 9i

Icons are displayed properly on design layout of forms 9i.
But at runtime these icons are disappeared !! why?
Can you tell me how to display them at runtime?
Thanks in advance.

1. convert the icons to gif using appropriate software with 18 pixel width and 18 pixel height
2. open the dos command and enter to the directory where all gif icons exist.
3. at that directory type:
c:\oracle9i\forms\jdk\bin\jar -cfv myappicons.jar *.gif
this to put all gif into jar file called myappicons.
4.copy this myappicons.jar into the following folder: c:\oracle9i\forms90\java
5. open the registery.dat file located in forms90\java\oracle\forms\registery and add :
default.icons.iconpath=the directory where the gif icons exist
default.icons.iconextension=gif
6. open formsweb.cfg file located in forms90\server and replace the text: archive_jini=f90all_jini.jar with :
archive_jini=f90all_jini.jar,myappicons.jar
imagebase=codebase

Can't see the icons on Forms Server

Hi
I have a little, but at the same time great for me.
I can't see the icons on the Forms Server, and I have translated
all Icons to Gifs.
I need re-compile the forms to apply this changes?
Where I have put the icons? (The correct path on the Alias of
Apache)
Thanks and best regards.

Hi
I just got my Apache web server running and added the images
into a folder in the ORACLE_HOME\Apache\Apache folder. Then in
the httpd.conf file look for where to add an Alias add in your
Reports virtual path along with the directory and stop and start
the apache web server then open the forms. Good luck

How can I fix this?

Look at the forms90/java/oracle/forms/registry/registry.dat file for how to specifiy the location of icons.

Displaying icons in forms 9i

I am new to forms 9i. I want to display icons in my menu toolbar.
Please send me the solution to display icons.
Thanks for ur help.

We tried to follow the instructions on the webicons.pdf file but we still can't see our icon in the forms builder or on our local machine webserver. We created a jar file but now we don't know how to reference the jpg in the properties of the button on our form. What we are trying to do is create a down arrow button to envoke a LOV. Is there an easier way?

Deploying icons with Forms 10.1.2.0.2

I'm just playing with the latest release of Forms on Windows XP and I'm trying to figure out where to put the icons so that they are displayed at run time. The documentation says you need to change this line default.icons.iconpath= in registry.dat. It also says the path is a url and gives the example http://www.forms.net/~luser/d2k_project/.
I'm running the form locally so I tried http://fred.oracle.local/forms/ and http://127.0.0.1/forms/ but neither of these work.
The file is called webview.jpg and is in C:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms and has not been wrapped up into a jar file.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks
John

You must edit the Registry.dat as follows:
default.icons.iconpath=file:///c:\\project/icon
Also, when working in Developer you need to do your virtual directory mapping in the <orahome>/forms90/j2ee/orion-web.xml file which is the equivalent of forms90.conf on iAS.

How to deply icons on forms services 10g (10.1.2)

Hi.
I've been trying to do a couple of "simple" things on forms services and have not yet succeded:
- Deploy Icons on the web.
- Specify an alternate path for fmx,pll and mmx files.
The installation is Application Server Forms and Reports Sevices.
According to Forms Services Deployment Guide (section 4.9.2.1), to enable custom icons in an archive file (jar) the steps are the following:
- Create an archive (jar) file of all icons files.
- Place the archive in forms/java directory.
- Modify the archive_jini to add the reference to the newly jar file. I've done these in both default section and custom section of formsweb.cfg.
- Modify imageBase to codebase in formsweb.cfg.
I can even "see" the archive file from the browser:
http://churum:7777/forms/java/art_icons.jar
Also, for finding forms files I modify the default.env file and added the desired directory:
forms_path = /home/oracle/OraHome_2/forms;/home/appls
HELP please. These two thing are supposed to be easy aren't they?.
Thanks in advance ...!

Perhaps the browser cache was refreshed or dumped. You can see this behavior (Forms not picking up changes made in the config files) by experimenting with the background color (set in formsweb.cfg). Make a change, load a page, new is there sometimes, sometimes not. When not, doing a refresh on the page (force a new/clean read) results in the new color being applied.

Search icons from forms/reports builder and runtimes

Hello together,
who can help me?
I search the icons from the programs forms- and reports-builder and theirs runtimes (the little pictures in front off the filename).
I need these to import in another program. They should have 16x16 pixel.
Where can I find these icons?
Thanking you in advance.
Regards,
Sandra

Not a final answer to your questions as I don't know the directory structure for forms & reports builders, but you can search for *.ico files in the same (unless forms & Reports use different extensions for icon files).

Icons on forms 10g

Hi,
I have created a new form on 10g. When I run this form, by default it has a menu (as Action, Edit, Query, Block, Help, etc) and below this there's a icon bar which is also by default and it has icons such as save, exit, print, enter query, execute query, etc. But there is no icon here for LOV's. Is there any way I can get a default icon for LOV's.
Thanks in advance.
