Anyone know how to change resource icons on ResEdit?

That is, how can I assign a graphic for a resource like "s˙st" in ResEdit? I have tried figuring this out before... with no luck...

Anyone know how to do this?

No.

Seriously, I think it has something to do with the prefs file.

(jeez, that was a great help, Maridian. Thanks a bunch!)

Urm.. no there is a way to do it. Did you notice ResEdit is COMPLETELY resourced? Which means it can be done thru ResEdit. Also, I believe someone made icons for EV templates at one point....

I just wondered if anyone knew how to do this...

No, what i meant was i didn't know how to do it. I know there's a way. Have you got the resedit rsource guide or whatever it is? That could help.

By the way, u seem to be on the same time as me. What time is it where you are, and why is it that every time u and me are on the same topic we annoy each other?

I live in OKC (Oklahoma City, OK, USA) at the moment... and yes its a very nasty town. Anyways its 10:45pm

I am on at all sorts of times. Honestly, I have visited here at all hours of the day.. sometimes I get up at 600am, sometimes thats when I goto bed...

I have sleeping trouble.. actually more like I need two extra hours each day to keep me on a regular cycle...

I'd be happy with 2 hours sleep each day.

But as for when we get on, (the net), I usually do it in class when the teacher is gone. Haha. :p.

Yes, it is possible -- I have done it with my version of ResEdit.
What you need to do is to open ResEdit with resedit (!) and change the icon resources -- full details when I get home!!

I don't know how. Can you explain it Mikee?

Take the ICN4 (the 32x32 one) and add an icon. It can be any number, then name it the resource you want it to look like. ie: "DLOG"

thats it...
