Get icon from Resources.dat

Post by zarkogajic »

Hi support,

I'd like to get my hand on this icon (GoToR action command):

I've tried visually searching for it in Resources.dat (as far as I can see icons are actually PDF pages) - but was not able to find. Is it there and if it is how to get it (to specify the same for my custom command).

p.s.
I know how to hijack the icon from a command registered in CmdManager.Cmds, but the one above is dynamically added and removed for that dialog.

Alex,

Thanks.

I'm unable to find how to use that :(

How to go from that string to IUIX_Icon ?

Hello žarko,

You should go to the Resources.dat file and find the Theme.xml file there. It holds all of the icon ids.

Cheers,
Alex
