Icon Theming Script

TuKo · 18 February 2017, 16:55

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a way to change my WB 3.1/3.9 with a script without using AfaOS and his theming capability.

My objective is to be able to switch from MagicWB to Ken's Icons and back.

Anybody already scratched his head with this ?

There is also a script I made in BetterWB which allows users to exclusively switch between 4 colour standard icons and glowicons.
You can easily alter that script to perfectly match your goal.

Oh this script is indeed very cool ! Many thanks.

Thinking about it, it would require a recursive copy of all .infos to a temp Theme dir forth and back.

What's your opinion ?

Well, if that temp dir bothers you you can always compress & uncompress it with lha from within the script. So it will be just a single small file.

Thanks gulliver, I'll follow that path.

While we are at it, do you know a way to edit VisualPrefs bitmap path? I'd like to add more existing themes to that ATE script.
