IconPackager 4 sneak peak...

Tuesday, February 19, 2008 by Draginol | Discussion: Icons

IconPackager 4 will let you change the colors of your icon packages on the fly.

For Windows Vista users, IconPackager will let users set their live folder icons independently of the icon package. So if a given icon package doesn't include support for Vista live folder icons, no problem, you can set them yourself.

The title bar and borders are from an upcoming WindowBlinds skin.

Lookin forward to the new IP. I always found when building packages, that after they are applied there is always a couple of icons that are all jaggy and pixelated and thats every package i have made, i didnt create them like that. I always thought it was some sort of bug with IP, so i hope it gets fixed in the new build.

How exactly do you mean blank icons? Can you possible post a screen showing exactly what is displaying within the themes list of the application?

Here is the screenshot of the blank icons shown in iconpackager 3.2 update

That happens every time I load a new iconpackage. When I go to preview the iconpackage here is what I get.

Can you post larger images?  These are hard to read.

This is an 800x600 shot. The other images still looked smaller.

That happens for me on x64 with some iconpackages, but when I apply them the icons get applied correctly.

ramesese, I can now see what you mean. Its quite possibly an issue with icon packages that still use ICL files. Are you using Vista x86 or Vista x64? Specifically what version of Vista are you using?

bagginz: Yes, I noticed that on my system (Vista Ultimate 64bit) it is indeed the IP-packages with the *.icl-files that don't show up, while I have no problems using the IP-files that don't use the libraries.

Is this only a 64bit problem?
Which program does use the *.icl-libraries to create the IP-themes? IconDeveloper? IconExplorer?

The last reply I have recieved was ticket BHV-984539 on Jan 25 2008, which states that "...it should receive an update soon." (another similar reply to the same question was on Feb 13 2008). Though I have not recieved a relevant reply that will actually change the status quo of the issue yet. I believe you might be looking at the wrong ticket.

Vista x64. Yes this can also be observed in my ticket (same reference no). And not to mention the crash issue with some IPs.

Can we have at least some update for IP, or better yet release the IP4 as beta now? Its long overdue for a beta update.

I've used IP for years on my old XP machine and it replaced most all the icons on my desktop. But now with this Vista premium machine, lots of shortcuts are left with just the Internet exploror icon I started with. And since the start menu in Vista shows so little area, I can't see the icon change well enough to make it worthwhile fooling with it. If the new IP skins ALL the desktop icons, I'd keep using IP gladly.

MouseGoddess, specifically which desktop icons are not being changed? can you possibly post a screen shot showing any issues you are having?

I just hope that resetting to windows defaults actually works in this new version. I can't explain just how much trouble I have had trying to get of unwanted icons that IconPackager has left behind when changing back to windows defaults.
