new icon.library is now working with normal workbench.library; but workbench.library 45.131 has some additional features and is working too with new icon.library.

I FOUND A SOLUTION TO BORDERS!
After trying all border removal apps on Aminet, only one really works. OK, it does so after Workbench has started, as it is a WBStartup app, but it is working as far as I tested. The app in question is this: http://aminet.net/package/util/wb/2b_RemIBorder Perhaps it helps Peter figure out how to add this into his library, but if it doesn't, at least we can all have borderless icons. NOTE it doesn't remove icon filling though, so it's just for a plain background color workbench :/ I say it's better than nothing, for 3.X users. Last edited by Amiga1992; 10 October 2012 at 20:12. |

Excuse me, but I've tried CWBAdvSP of one of my Cf's and I coudn't see for example the icon of my PCMCIA (just a dot). I've installed the last version that I had in the PCmcia Cf and I still can't see it and a lot of icons it has. What is the version of your library I should use for Scalos or should I change anything else? I have to say that I haven't tried this last beta but here.

retrofan: i downloaded the demo adf from first posting. put tools from df0:c to my harddrive, also icon.lib and wb.lib (from older demo adf). editing startup-sequence. and thats it. use artm tool from aminet, to check which version of icon and workbench library you use.

Update to icon.library 46.4.262 and to IconDemoADF.rar
Fixed some disk snapshot and def_icon problems. For details, see 1. posting. Sorry, but there is no space on the ADF left for the big fat wblib. Use your own, plz. If you need a patch for the latest workbench library v45 to let it work under OS 3.0: http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=838432&postcount=1 @Akira, emufan & Retrofan Are your problems solved now with the latest update ? Of course, I cannot remove the limitations of the older workbench.libraries. My intention was it to make possible to use the wblibs directly from ROM on OS 3.0/3.1 systems. But the workbench.library v44+ will always be the better choice. Last edited by PeterK; 12 October 2012 at 23:12. |

Update to icon.library 46.4.263
Now, I could improve the def_icon processing. It uses the DefIcons tool from the NewIcons46 package. Last edited by PeterK; 10 May 2018 at 21:22. |

No my friend, mfilos,
a real Greek would grave important things like this into stone, that holds up for ever. How else could we know after more than 2000 years who the greatest men were in Greece at those days. Just writing blogs on the net is not enough. Think about it.... |

Ok Retrofan,
if nothing goes wrong and nobody is crying anymore that there are any bugs, issues, problems or some features missing, has demand for anything that could be solved then I will try to build up a new Aminet release in the next days. |

Awesome! You need to work on other ROM modules in order to remove copyright shiz like you did on icon.library and make them faster and more stable!!!
Omw to carve my Amiga Blog into stone... LOL |

I need to give this a try and report back to you. The library is fantastic, got to say. And now that I use that tool I posted above to remove borders, I am happy, as I don't really use workbench or window background images or patterns.

Unfortunately, I had a few little problems with this DontShowIBorder tool, since the first icons, the disks, came up to early for this tool to remove the frames. A delay for LoadWB caused the system to start in an unstable 4 color mode. The only solution seems to call ResetWB from the Workbench menu. But these issues could be just a timing problem, which may or may not appear, depending on the system configuration.

Yeah, I had those problems with most tools, but not with the one I posted, and I ran it in an "unlimited speed" system on WinUAE and everything worked fine. In any case, it's not a problem for you to fix

I found another solution: NoIconBorder from Aminet.
Code:
Run >NIL: C:Wait 4 + C:NoIconBorder >NIL: LoadWB EndCLI >NIL: |

And it loads before Workbench, that's really cool. How did I miss that one?
Let me try it! |

No, it's just launched before LoadWB, but it is executed with 4 seconds delay to be sure that the workbench screen has already been opened.
The launching cannot be done after LoadWB, because the startup-sequence must be finished as soon as possible or you will run into the 4 color screen problem. |

Well that's why the one I linked to works I guess, because it is loaded on WBStartup.
EDIT: tried out the new version, Deficons works great, everything is looking fine! Last edited by Amiga1992; 13 October 2012 at 19:51. |
