Getting the Icon designer in VS.NET to work!
-
Will some kind person please tell me how to get an icon to refresh. I add an icon to my project and I get the default design. I re-do the icon in the icon designer and save it. I select the icon to appear for the form and there it is in the properties, showing like it should. However, when I run the application, the icon that appears in my form is the default design. I've tried building and displaying (browse) the icon and I get the default design again - even though the new icon is shown in the designer. Clearly, I'm doing something retarded, but I obviously too retarded to figure it out. Can someone point me in the right direction before I test the aerodynamic qualities of my laptop? Thanks, Andrew

Did you try changing any other images in the icon group? You might be changing an image with a different size and/or color format than the one chosen to show in your app. Try all the ones for the icon: 16x16, 32x32, 256 colors, etc. Cheers
Jeff: The icon I'm trying to change is the one associated with my application. I orginally placed it as bot the main form icon and the notifyicon. Then when I tried to change it's appearance, it just wouldn't update. I cahnged it fine in the designer, but it wouldn't save or update. I'm starting to wonder if I need to re-do my machine! Thanks, Andrew
