You can find out lots about using IceWM from the EZpup Help page on the community web site.eden6000 wrote:I have searched, but haven't been able to find the answer: how can you have the app icon showing on the application bar (usually at the left side)?
Ok, that's the title bar and if you are using IceWM the default icon for that is in the /root/.icewm/themes/{theme_name}/icons directory for the theme you are using. It is called app_16x16.xpm for the default, but individual applications can also call their own version.eden6000 wrote:Thanks WhoDo, but from your answer I feel I didn't explain me well (translating from italian is not always so straight...). The bar I was talking about is the one that is in these 2 screenshots I attach, and the icon is the one at the extreme left...I suppose it's a setting that is inside the specific theme, not an icewm preference
Code: Select all
Look=flat
Gradients= "menubg.xpm taskbuttonactive.xpm menusel.xpm dialogbg.xpm workspacebuttonactive.xpm taskbuttonbg.xpm taskbuttonminimized.xpm"
RolloverButtonsSupported=1
ShowMenuButtonIcon=1
TitleButtonsLeft="s"
TitleButtonsRight="xmi"
TitleButtonsSupported="sdhxmir"
#TitleButtonsSupported="xism"
TitleBarHeight=24
TitleBarJustify=50
That contains the default for that theme only. If you are looking for the icons that are called by applications, those can be anywhere in your $PATH; like /usr/share/icons for example. With EZpup I put a whole bunch of applications icons in /root/.icewm/icons directory where they can be called by the /root/.icewm/winoptions file.eden6000 wrote:Yes, that was, the title bar....thanks for the details about icewm themes locations, but I think that the icon directory in /root/.icewm/themes/{theme_name}/icons is not the one that contains the icons I need,
Yes! The reason you get that is that the theme you are using has a menuButtonA.xpm, menuButtonI.xpm or menuButtonO.xpm that already has an icon included. The menuButton?.xpm's live in the /root/.icewm/themes/{theme_name} directory. The two icons compete and confuse the display. I always find it best to create a blank menuButton set as a background for the chosen default or application icon. Then the distortion doesn't happen. BTW, the A, I and O stand for Active, Inactive and rollOver.eden6000 wrote:I tried previously something similar but with no success...now the icon is showing, BUT (there is always a "but") it's all"distorted", like this:
Any idea?
IceWM is a window manager, so IceWM themes only affect the windows i.e. the taskbar window, titlebar and borders, menu, etc.bones01 wrote:...when I click on any of them, the only thing that changes is the task bar and the menu bar; the wallpaper and icons stay exactly the same.
It's called Theta Space and I found it and downloaded it for you (attached). Simply download and click on the file and it will unpack wherever you have put it.blacktulipgirl wrote:I had this wallpaper, but then I had to do a renstall of puppy and lost it: ...
I thought I knew where to get it but I can't find it.... anyone have any idea where to get this? I think its called Smooth Emerald Theta. But I can't find it searching for that.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! You have made me happier than a mere wallpaper should make a girl, but I have it on my desktop again and yeah! Its perfect.WhoDo wrote:It's called Theta Space and I found it and downloaded it for you (attached). Simply download and click on the file and it will unpack wherever you have put it. Hope that helps.
If you like "Theta Space" its part of a Fractal collection, Have a look here at maybe 100 different ones including Theta Spaceblacktulipgirl wrote:I had this wallpaper, but then I had to do a renstall of puppy and lost it:
