We dropped the icons in the Programs list since extracting them is problematic and time consuming.
Does it need a different extraction method than the one that library uses?
We use iconextract which does not works for everything and it is slow
Is there a way to manually set the icon in the programs list and Library grid?
define 'slow'...
the work has to be done only once while adding the program, so 'slow' isn't a argument, imho...
And bottles did it already for creating desktop shortcuts: the same icon could be used for the list?
it would be nice to see the applications icon in the gnome Panel instead of the Bottles icon to find open programs easier. i tried it with StartupWMClass, but with no luck.
Tell us the problem or your need
Bottles doesn't currently use icons anywhere even if it finds it in the .exe after you add it to library. Anyway in my opinion, displaying icons in the programs list would be a welcome addition so people can quickly see which program to launch (there are people that rely on visuals more than the text).
Describe the solution you'd like
To fix this I would display 32x32 icon next to program name in the programs list. It would look something like this: This is an unmodified 32x32 icon taken with GIMP from multi layered .ico that Bottles makes when you add the Notepad++ to the library. It fits perfectly. I didn't know what to do when a program doesn't have an icon (like the wmplayer visible above) so I just left it unchanged.
Other solutions?
