kaotkbliss Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Is there a way to get the icon from an Internet shortcut (or steam shortcut) to use as the icon in a listview? normally I would use GuiCtrlSetImage for executables and such, but this method can't seem to get the icon from a .url file (such as if you add the autoit website to favorites, the shortcut has the "A" logo) 010101000110100001101001011100110010000001101001011100110010000 001101101011110010010000001110011011010010110011100100001 My Android cat and mouse gamehttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.KaosVisions.WhiskersNSqueek We're gonna need another Timmy!

JohnOne Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I believe you need to know where the icon you want, resides. What file is it a resource of, and it's name or ordinal value.

BrewManNH Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 This is the contents of the internet explorer shortcut I have for this site. [DEFAULT] BASEURL=http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/ [{000214A0-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}] Prop3=19,2 [internetShortcut] URL=http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/ IDList= IconFile=http://aut1.autoit-cdn.com/forum/favicon.ico IconIndex=1 As you can see, it's formatted exactly like an INI file, and the icon file location is stored in the IconFile key in the InternetShortcut section. All your .url files will be formatted the same way. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.
