  • How to change the icon of an extra folder in the sidebar?

    I just downloaded Sierra, I have a mac mini and I want to change the icon of a folder that I created, I already changed it, but in the sidebar, there is no icon, so I need help to change to the icon I want.

    If you had already created a folder named & then hung out in the

    Docking station, a change in this file might have to replace one in the Dock; so

    If this is the case, do drag the earlier version of Dock, replace with new.

    Of course, when you drag the icon of the old dock, it will go "poof!"

    {Are you referring to the dock as a 'side bar' on the desktop?}

    Files and web links, etc. can be slid in the side bar (Dock)?

    on the side of the bulkhead the nearest trash. Only applications or utilities

    can be moved to the other side.

    Here is an example of a file with a custom icon to the dock, put in place to

    be considered a list, arranged by name; used to launch additional items that

    otherwise could not fit well on the dock. There are also the Alias of elements:

    The alias or the symbiotic relationship that you create in the Dock is always based on the presence

    the original (a custom, etc folder) or on the icon element can become a '? Mark '

    or blank if the original is no longer available. I put the original in my user folder.

    If you already know how to copy a new icon to a folder (else, etc.)

    or make a new graphic icon and paste it into the folder to replace original;

    so if I understand this issue, the rest should be easy.

    Unless you try to accomplish something else...!

    Hi, do someone know how to change the icon of the application of the project, we have created in the JDE? I searched the forum, and suggestions should go to the project properties, go to the "resources" tab and add the icon file. I have also included the file icon (PNG 68x68pixel) to the project.
    But this does not seem to work for me.
    I also tried to build clean, remove files jad and others, always not when I tried the app Simulator or on real device. Any help will be appreciated.
    I use Blackberry JDE 6, test the application on the actual device (9800), Simulator (9700). And the app that I'm testing is just a pushscreen simple helloWorld app, not a lot of code here. Thank you.

    1. Add the image to your project.
    2. Right-click on the image and choose Properties.
    3. Check "use as icon for the Application.

  • How to change the icon of the web in the browser window

    I created my site and cannot find how to change the icon in the browser window (as they have done at the top of this page with the icon of Adobe before the Adobe Forums: text) anyone would be nice to give me a little help?

    Do you mean the favicon?

    I only learned that recently about favicons myself - so if you google the word you will get a lot of resources to do this. Bascially, it's a little icon file located in the root directory of your site that browsers search and display for you. As long as the file is there (* named favicon.ico*) will automatically appear if I'm wrong in what I read.

    It's the thing you're looking for? (edit: it also appears in your list of bookmarks in firefox - if it isn't the one you want it is the favicon file)

    How to change the extensions on several files with Windows 7?

    You hear no doubt, is that your movie software will only recognize certain types of image file formats.  If this is the case, you will need to reformat format files to any format PNG is recognizable by the software.

    Rather than we guess, please identify your «film» software

    Download and install IrfanView, which is a free utility for images.  http://www.IrfanView.com/

    IrfanView has the ability to read a great many formats of image files.  It can also convert image files formats.  And even better - for you - it can do all these things on a batch of files.

    As test, after I installed IrfanView, open one of your PNG files.  Now click on file > save as, and select the 'Save as Type' to be little matter the file type of your movie software will accept.  Save the file.  Make sure your movie software can accept the new file.

    Once you are convinced that you can modify files that you have in a format that you can use, use IrfanView

    File > Batch Conversion/Rename command.  If necessary, see IrfanView help on this topic.

  • How to change the icon tdms?

    Hello

    for reasons unknown, some of my tdms files - have different icons when I open the tdms files in Diadem. Some have

    an hourglass icon and only change the icon when I click on the sign '+' of the folder itself.

    Someone knows this problem and how can I solve it automatically so you do not have all hourglass icons more?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Norick_17,

    the hourglass is presented for the case DataFinder not already indexes these files.

    This could be for several reasons:

    • There are a lot of file never indexed in this folder, it takes awhile for DataFinder index-> is when F5 to update the display
      The script for this code is: Navigator.Display.CurrDataFinder.Browser.RefreshAll

    • The indexing process has stopped for a different reason. You can manually trigger the re-indexing n MyDataFinder or DataFinder Manager by right clicking on the folder and choose "Index file"
      The script for this code is: Navigator.Display.CurrDataFinder.GetDataFinder.Indexer.IndexFolder
