Description pzajac 2005-11-15 10:48:28 UTC
There is assigned default icon for Modules folder of Module Suite in project
view. The icon is not much pretty.
Comment 1 Martin Krauskopf 2005-11-15 10:57:46 UTC
Sure. If you anybody has an idea or tip about the icon, let me know. Otherwise I
probably edit somehow (e.g. make it darker or somohow little different) icon of
suite root node and use it.
Comment 2 pzajac 2005-11-15 12:54:18 UTC
I got a idea - create icon from two icons:
foreground - netbeans module's icon
background -  folder's icon 

What do you think?
Comment 3 Martin Krauskopf 2005-11-15 12:59:04 UTC
Sound interesting ;) I'll "gimp" it and attach an attachment here.
Comment 4 Jesse Glick 2005-11-15 18:43:25 UTC
Make sure to notify Docs of any changes that might affect screenshots. ("late UI
changes")

I agree that folder + module could look reasonable as an icon.
Comment 5 Jesse Glick 2005-11-15 18:43:45 UTC
I don't think this a priority issue, though. :-)
Comment 6 Geertjan Wielenga 2005-11-15 18:53:17 UTC
Do not change/improve/alter/<any other synonym> icons any more. Docs freeze was
3 hours ago. The helpfiles, which contain icons, are no longer in our hands.
Comment 7 Jesse Glick 2005-11-15 18:56:45 UTC
OK, though I don't believe this particular (lack of) icon actually appears in
the current helpset...
Comment 8 pzajac 2005-11-16 10:49:13 UTC
I agree with lowering priority and milestone future milestone. Too late to do it :(

experimental icon
Comment 10 Martin Krauskopf 2005-11-28 13:59:49 UTC
I've just tried it. Looks much better than current (none) one :)
Thanks. I'm going to commit. Docs freeze was postponed, right? And none icon
looks really weird. Are you OK with this change Geertjan?
Comment 11 Martin Krauskopf 2005-11-28 14:19:40 UTC
Zajo, would be very nice if you could also attach "Opened Folder" icon.
