WinWarden Icon
« on: October 26, 2009, 11:29 AM »
Hello all:
Is there any way to change the icon for WinWarden? If so, how? Keep in mind that I'm no programmer. :)
Kind Regards,

if you use the .ahk version then it's possible. search for the lines containing Menu,Tray, ... and add the following code:

Code
Menu, tray, Icon, %A_WinDir%\system32\Shell32.dll, 44  ;Star Icon

if you have a particular icon, then change filename/path accordingly.

Okay, I think I am using AHK version, it you mean AutoHotKey. Keep in mind that I do not know any programming, so I have no idea of where to input that line of text you provided. So, how do I do that, and how do I change the icon????

search in the Winwarden file for the following lines and insert the text in red. that should do the trick..

Quote
TRAYMENU:
Menu,Tray,DeleteAll ;fresh start
Menu,Tray,NoStandard
Menu,Tray,Tip,WinWarden
Menu,Tray,Icon, %A_WinDir%\system32\Shell32.dll, 44  ;Star Icon
Loop,%menucount% ;custom menu items - item can be spacer
   Menu,Tray,Add,% item_Menu_%A_Index%,APPLYMENUITEM
If menucount>0 ;spacer before standard menu items
   Menu,Tray,Add,

Menu,Tray,Add,&Roll Up,ROLLUP
Menu,Tray,Add,Roll &Down,ROLLDOWN
Menu,Tray,Add,
Menu,Tray,Add,Center,CENTER
Menu,Tray,Add,&Place,:Placemenu
Menu,Tray,Add,&Cover,:Covermenu
Menu,Tray,Add,&Morph,:Morphmenu

if you want me to do it, attach the icon that you want to change to and i'll do the rest. ;)

Yeah, if you don't mind doing it for me, as your instructions just went way over my head. I don't even know how to open a program to edit code. I should start learning some of this stuff. :)

Thank you in advance. You're very kind to help out!

Okay, I think I misunderstood you. I don't use AHK. With WinWarden I just have one exe to run. So...? LOL
