Hello,
Could someone please tell me specifically what I have to do to get my own
icon in the icon box (and at the left of the selection bar on the window)?
(The little square you press to turn your window into an icon).
i.e. What kind of file the image must be in? What parameter to change of the
upper (top) level widget.
note: I am using UIL/UID and a C program.

| 534.1 | Here's how we do it. | IAGO::SCHOELLER | Who's on first? | Tue Apr 04 1989 16:19 | 41 |
what I do,
Use decw$examples:bitmap to create a 32x32 and a 17x17 bitmap for your icons.
$bitmap=="$decw$examples:bitmap"
$bitmap icon.bit 32x32
$bitmap sm_icon.bit 17x17
In your C file include the following:
#include "icon.bit"
#include "sm_icon.bit"
Widget toplevel_widget;
Display *disp;
Screen *scrn;
Drawable drwbl;
Pixmap ipix;
Pixmap spix;
Arg al[40];
int count;
toplevel_widget = XtInitialize (...
disp = XtDisplay (toplevel_widget);
scrn = XtScreen (toplevel_widget);
drwbl = RootWindowOfScreen (scrn);
ipix = XCreateBitmapFromData
(disp, drwbl, icon_bits, icon_width, icon_height);
spix = XCreateBitmapFromData
(disp, drwbl, sm_icon_bits, sm_icon_width, sm_icon_height);
count = 0;
XtSetArg (al[count], XtNiconPixmap, ipix); count++;
XtSetArg (al[count], XtNiconifyPixmap, spix); count++;
XtSetValues (toplevel_widget, al, count);
You can also do a large part of it with UIL but someone else can fill you in on
that.
