Title bar icon

Can the small icon at the top of a Vi window be customized? Or are we stuck with the labview default icon as free advertisement for NI a client would like their own logo there.

Thanks I will try to build my application with a custom icon. I know I can customize the icon of a Vi and I really like the icon editor, is there any way of saving this icon to an icon file, that would be great. Currently I have to copy and paste it into a graphics program and then save it as a 32x32 icon. I wish the application builder let you edit an icon file right there for linking, LV already has provided the hard code which is the icon editor itself. Maybe there already is this feature, but I haven't found it yet.

.exe icon an title bar icon

I have searched the board but couldnt find an answer. I hope someone here can help me. My problem is as such, whenever I create a custom icon for my .exe, the icon for the .exe file remains as the default labview icon but title bar icon for the program changes. How do I make sure that the icon for .exe file changes aswell. I already created a .ico file and i'm running labview 8.5.
Thanks.

Your .ico file should also include a 16x16 32 colors icon (or 16 colors, I don't remember) and that will be used for the window title. Personally, I use IcoFX for creating icons, which is free, but I assume that the icon editor in 8.x can allow you to do this as well.

Page Title Bar icons functionality

Hi all,
Can you please give me some details about the following icons on the Page Title bar (New Analysis, Open, Save As,.. Comments ) . How are these useful when we run the iViews in the Portal. I could not find any documentation on SAP Help.
Thank you for your time,

Problem with title bar icons to change window size

i am running v 2.6 on vista 64 bit with a dual core processor. the window opens full screen on my Eizo 24" monitor set at 1900x1200 but there are no choices in the top right of my menu bar to shrink, move the window. i therefore cannot shrink the window or move it to my second monitor. if i right click on the lightoom icon in the taqsk bar, there are no choices to move, size, minimize,etc. other applications including photoshop work fine with easy control of window size so i do not think it is my system or graphics card. contol-Q does not close the program and the only way i can do so is from the file menu.
help please.

Jerome,
Hit 'F' enough times to get the title bar back.

Different icon for Frame's title bar and alt tab

I have been using Frame.setIconImage to supply the image icon for the title bar and (on Windows, the <alt><tab> image). The trouble is there is only one image for both but one is usually small 16x16 and the other is usually large 32x32. What I have been doing is creating an image that is 32x32 but scales back to 16x16 and still looks good.
The trouble is it is tricky to create graphics like that. I wondered is there a way to specify one image for the title bar and another image for the <alt><tab> image?
thanks,
Ian

Has anyone encountered this problem before? Is there
a solution? Or can anyone say definitivly that
specifying the title bar icon and the <alt><tab> icon
separately is not possible?Sorry- you can't do it. Windows apps can do this easily because they use a .ico that can contain both the 16x16 and 32x32.
There are a couple of hacks I tried once, trying to swap icons based on events, but they are horrible hacks and don't work well enough to use. Your choices are as follows:
1. Use a 16x16 .gif as your icon and have it look good in the upper left hand corner of your frame but horrible during alt-tab,
or
2. Use a 32x32 .gif and have it look poorly in the upper left hand corner of your frame but good during most other times.
I'd choose #1.
(The reason behind all of this is Java does a much worse job of resizing your icon than you could do yourself with a little work in Paint Shop Pro.)

Web Part Title Bar image

I can't believe no one has asked about this, but my search
came up empty.
How does one change the tiny (16x16) image on the Web Part
Title Bar? I see where to set the title, but not the image.

Strange term ... must be MS-speak. ;)

Most people refer to it as the "address bar icon", which
returns a lot
of useful results on Google.

No reason to apologize. I know that sometimes finding the

can be difficult if you don't actually know what to search
for. In this
case it just seemed quite easy and straightforward to me ...
but anyway.

Clicking on enclosing folder's icon in the title bar doesn't open Finder

I create PDF booklet from Mellel document using PDF service. Preview application opens newly created PDF document. I Command+click on its icon in the document window's title bar, move cursor one level lower and click on the encompassing folder's ("temp") icon. I expect new Finder's window to open and show me PDF document selected. However, Finder doesn't open. Disk permissions repaired. One week old clean Leopard installation. When I click on the icon in the TextEdit window's title bar and do the same, encompassing Finder's folder opens in a new window. Word also opens Finder window. ONly Preview doesn't work. It used to work at least one month ago. Where the problem could be?

Please post the solution so it will help others, and mark this topic as "solved" so it is easier to track the status when browsing the forum.

How to replace the icon in the title bar and minimized window

I am not sure if this is a Swing question. But since nobody answered it in the Java Programming forum, let me place it here:
I would like to set my own icon in the title bar and in the minimized window of my java application, replacing the java coffee cup icon.
I am using:
frame.setIconImage(new ImageIcon("image.gif").getImage())
as was suggested previously in the Java Programming forum at:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=31&threadID=5212059
This does create the icon in both places. However, it only works when I run the program from JBuilder 2006. It doesn't work if I run the program from the .jar or the .exe file.
How can I make it work for my .jar and .exe file?
Please help! Thanks!

It doesn't work if I run the program from the .jar...working example for a .jar
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
class Testing
public void buildGUI()
    JFrame f = new JFrame();
    Image img;
    try
      java.net.URL url = new java.net.URL(getClass().getResource("Save.gif"), "Save.gif");//correct capitalization required
      if (url != null)
        img = javax.imageio.ImageIO.read(url);
        f.setIconImage(img);
    catch(Exception e){}//do nothing - default will display
    f.setSize(200,200);
    f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
    f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    f.setVisible(true);
public static void main(String[] args)
    SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){
      public void run(){
        new Testing().buildGUI();

Add maximumsize icon to title bar in JDialog

My question is how to add a maximumsize icon to the title bar of JDialog, i want to create a dialog that when user double-click the JDialog's title bar or click the maximumsize icon in the JDialog's title bar the dialog can be displayed as maximum size. it just likes Frame.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Lupeng,
I can think of 2 approaches, firstly and probably the most easiest is to use a frame to mimic the behaviour of the dialog.
Secondly, implement your own L&F for dialogs by wrting your own RootPaneUI that uses your own version of TitlePane. The TitlePane class will take care of the buttons and mouse handling. Have a look at BasicRootPaneUI to get a better understanding of the implementation ;)

Disable close icon on title bar

Is it possible to disable the close icon on the title bar (right hand corner) in a swing window?
Fai.

Example:
frameNameHere.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE);
There is also the option to take away the "window-frame" alltogether with:
frameNameHere.setUndecorated(true);
Though if you do that you should probably use the "DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE" anyway, since otherwise it can still be closed with Alt F4 for instance.

Black and white and coulored icons in Gnome3 title bar

Hello all,
I wonder about icons in the Gnome3 title bar. I did'nt changed any related settings.
I have an up to date physical installation and an up to date Virtual Box with beautiful black and white icons:
Today I upgraded a clone of the Virtual Box machine. This machine was not updated since months. The icons are colored now.
I thought all up to date installations should have the same theme and icons. Just for know, why they are different and where can I fix it?

Don't export it as a .jpeg which is unsuitable for B&W images, blurring them as rgb files (not B&W).
Better is .tiff (compressed B&W tiff are tiny) or 1 bit .gif.
It is also possible that .pdf vector files might work but I haven't experimented with those.

Can anyone tell me how I can replace Sun's Java Icon?The way you were already told. Only if you aren't going to put the icon in your current working directory, don't write code that assumes the icon is in your current working directory.

No icon in title bar for notification center

I have no icon for Notification Center in my title bar. System prefs seem to show NC is operational, but no icon...

Read http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2012/07/the-os-x-mountain-lion-survival-guide/
It may answer your question. NC in Mountain Lion is a bit inconsistent. Hopefully fixes coming soon.
