I’d like to use one of the icons in the default dopus icon set on the status bar.
One messy way of doing it is to show the icon set in opus preferences and screen grab all the icons and load it into a paint package. I could then crop the image down to just the icon I want and save it out as a png file. I could then load the icon onto the status bar by using the {i:pathname} parameter.
Is it possible to just reference the icon directly within the icon set without having to grab and save out a separate copy?
I don't think there is any way to do this at the moment, I think because it was assumed you wouldn't want 20x20 images in the statusbar.
Presumably you only want to use one or two of the icons in the status bar? If so let me know which ones and I'll extract them for you with the alpha channels in tact. If you copy them from a screenshot then they won't have nice antialiasing and shadows like the proper icons do.
I've used {i:dir} and {i:file} to represent all folders and all files. Now I want an icon to represent all folders AND files. I saw this one in the icon set, can you extract with alpha?
Odd... I inserted the {i:dir} and {i:file} without a problem but only the Folder icon is displayed. The File icon isn't showing up in the preview section of the Preferences window either.
I had that problem on my XP system. I downloaded opus 9 on my Vista system configured it how I liked with folder and file icons on the system tray and then exported the settings to a file. Went to my XP computer imported the settings and the file icon doesn't show for some reason. I never managed to find the problem so I just used the fileext .txt feature to show an icon instead.
{i:file} should give you the "unknown" filetype's icon. Which icon do you get if you create a file called "blah.blah"? {i:file} should give you the same icon.
On XP you're not missing out on much as the unknown filetype icon is fugly and {i.txt} probably looks much nicer (depending on your text editor).
But when you specify .Ico path in the status bar as {i:C:\icons\Test.ico} and exports dopus on a usb drive these do not work anymore.
You can not configure in a way that also work on usb pendrive?
I Can put the icon in the "icons" folder of dopus but every time you change the letter they no longer work.
There is a command like
{i:%Thepathwhredopusstart%:\DOPUS\Icons\Test.ico} or
%Thepathwhredopusstart% or %HOMEDRIVE% or a generic command that shows me the letter of the drive where I started Dopus.
{i:%Thepathwhredopusstart%:\DOPUS\Icons\Test.ico} or
%Thepathwhredopusstart% or %HOMEDRIVE% or a generic command that shows me the letter of the drive where I started Dopus.
I can use a command like?
{i:\dopusglobaldata\Icons\Test.ico}[/quote]
The built in alias /home points to the base DOpus folder. When running from USB that will typically be D:\DOPUS or E:\DOPUS or similar. When running from your hard drive it will typically be C:\Program Files\GPSoftware\Directory Opus.
