[N900] How to change a desktop icon?
Hello experts!
If you have a look on the following picture: http://666kb.com/i/cdt1343w4frmzjnrf.png you can see a horrible button from the app "cmd shortcuts" (it is the one under the Bluetooth botton). From an aesthetically point of view, this "cmd shortcouts" button is a no go (but the app is great!!) I am something like a stupid N900 user. Is there any possibility for me, to change this botton to a nicer one? Your help or advice is very welcome! |
Re: [N900] How to change a desktop button?
That's not a button, it's an icon. You can find it somewhere under /usr/share/icons/hicolor. I don't know the app so can't give you the exact name but I would start by using the app name as a starting point.
Once you find the icon, you can replace it with a different one with the same name and size. Pixel size that is, not file size. |

Wow, there are so many subfolders under "/usr/share/icons/hicolor". They are named by pixe-sizes. Which pixel-size I should check firstly?

Re: [N900] How to change a desktop icon?
I have found the icon in two subfolders of "/usr/share/icons/hicolor". Both folders are namend with "app":
1: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps 2: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps Which one is the icon on the desktop? |
Re: [N900] How to change a desktop icon?
Your app name is not "app", it's something like "cmd shortcut" :-) It most likely has several icons, scattered across several folders, each used for a different thing.
OK here's a bone for you. I've downloaded the deb file and looked at the contents. You icons are: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/cmd-shortcuts.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/cmd-shortcuts.png They are both the same visually, only different sized. Why don't you copy them to your PC and edit them, or create completely new ones and overwrite the originals? |
Re: [N900] How to change a desktop icon?
Thanks! These are exactly the files I have found:
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/cmd-shortcuts.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/cmd-shortcuts.png Are there everywhere some icons to find, which I could use instead? I am not so good in working with picture programms ... |
Re: [N900] How to change a desktop icon?
