IconSet (IconX?) how to add new icon sets?

[Sim085]

Hello, I have installed BetterWB and I am just going around. I found IconSet and this remind me of a script I once had done to achieve the same thing.

Anyways, when I click on IconSet I get a window with three options; Standard, GlowIcons or Quit. My understanding is that the icons are copied from SYS:Prefs/Presets/IconSets/<package>

My question is; can this be extended? I like the feasibility to swap from one icon set to another with ease so I was wondering if I can add my own icon set in SYS:Prefs/Presets/IconSets/ and be able to select this package from IconSet.

I tried to make a copy of Standard folder within IconSets and rename the script within this however this did not work. I still only get three options when I click on Icon Set.

Or maybe this is not possible?

I would try to open the "IconSet" file with a texteditor and see if I can do anything like add a new folder or script to the selection by copy pasting / editing the file.

EDIT: you could also replace the icons in the GlowIcons folder for example with your own set and use the default IconSet script.

I am glad you found IconSet useful.

I made it expandable, you can easily add an extra icon set.
You are on the right track, but you also need to edit the file Sysrefs/IconSet (use Redit, it is inside of Tools)

Take a look at the script. It is dead easy to understand it.
Anyway, If you need help just send me a PM with all the details and I will do it for you.

Thanks gulliver,

I did not realize IconSet was a script. I am still a newb on how Workbench works and functions.
That said I edited IconSet script and sure worked like a charm.

Thanks gulliver for your help and also big thanks for BetterWB. I am trying it the first time and I am finding it helpfull
