GordonFreeman Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) How to add icons to the EXE In my source is: Icon1 GUICtrlCreateIcon = $ ("Red.ico", -1, 24, 216, 24, 24) But only appears if the file is in the same directory as the exe. I tried to add Res files at compile time but without success: C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorDesktopRed.ico in script: #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Icon_Add=C:Documents and SettingsAdministradorDesktopRed.ico remembering, it works perfectly if ico files are in the same folder Note: The Icon is not what appears in the exe, but that appears at the bottom of my form Edited February 29, 2012 by GordonFreeman Frabjous Installation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Try adding quotes around the filename/path statement, there are spaces in it that might be throwing it off. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

GordonFreeman Posted February 29, 2012 Author Share Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) Documents(here?) and(here?) Settings i try: #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Icon_Add=E:Red.ico #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Icon_Add=E:Green.ico In example of autoit: ; Example 1 #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Icon_Add=C:Program FilesAutoIt3Iconsau3.ico #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Icon_Add=C:Program FilesAutoIt3Iconsfiletype1.ico #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Icon_Add=C:Program FilesAutoIt3Iconsfiletype2.ico #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Icon_Add=C:Program FilesAutoIt3Iconsfiletype3.ico #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Icon_Add=C:Program FilesAutoIt3Iconsfiletype-blank.ico So the problem must lie in what I call my icon. I am calling like he was in the directory, $Icon1 = GUICtrlCreateIcon("Red.ico", -1, 24, 216, 24, 24) Is there another way to call him him being included in the exe?

BrewManNH Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 If you are trying to use the icon in that function, you can't refer to it by it's filename because it isn't in your script directory, it's embedded in your exe file. You have to use your script name as the source @ScriptFullPath and a reference to the icon in it. Look at this page for an example of how to use an embedded icon. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.
