Change edit Icons.

Unread post by ForSSux »

Hi,

Sometimes you want to change icons, there not consisted in color or you don't like them.
Where is this done ?

Let say you like the theme "cool and clean" but you noticed some inconsistend colors.

In Windows this is the path:

Code: Select all

C:\madsonic\jetty\5300\webapp\icons
In the other platforms something very similar but without the c:\ of course.

Most of the times a reload of the page is sufficient.

However image you still find it odd that the Icon above the word Discover is yellow and you want it in black and white as the rest.
You will not find the icon in the path above.

First the icon name isn't discover.png but cover.png one can learn this by right clicking on the icon and save it.
Second this cover.png icon takes it color from the default theme because it's not declared here

Code: Select all

C:\madsonic\jetty\5300\webapp\WEB-INF\classes\org\madsonic\theme\coolandclean.properties
So copy the yellow cover.png make it in black and white
I use Gimp select picture ==> color ==> Desaturate ==> average
Put the line below in the the coolandclean.properties file above

Code: Select all

coverImage = icons/coolandclean/cover.png 
One need to restart madsonic and probably clean the cache from the browser.
Here you'll find grey icons for Madsonic (Cool & Clean ) theme : https://drive.google.com/folderview?id= ... sp=sharing
