[feature request] When adding Alias from FARR, assign an icon automatically
vitalyb:
I'd like to expand my prvious idea:

When you do "Rightclick->Add to group alias" it fills the path for you but it wouldn't take the icon. So in result I have lots of aliases with empty icons.
P.S An alternative solution would be to create a folder with shortcuts, just as it is done with "cpanel".
mouser:
what aliases are you creating that you need to specifically add icons for?
vitalyb:
For example, I am searching for Visual Studio and decide I want to assign an alias for it.
So I do "Add to group alias" (new one) and assign the alias devenv.
However, when I write "dev" I see lots of results and one of them is devenv however since this group (with one alias) has no icons, I see a blank icon.
Another solution would be to give groups with no icons the icon of their first alias.

This is what I mean:
mouser:
well..
FARR should be picking up the icon automatically for all true file entries in an alias.
the only alias results that should need a custom icon is when it's not for a file or if you want to override the default icon associated with a file.
so maybe it's a bug in farr, or maybe the ms visual studio lnk is somehow missing icon..
or can you think of a reason why it's not picking up the icon from the file?
