loadable iconsets

JdGordon:
Hey all,

Ive mostly finished a patch which will hopefully go in early next week which will allow you to change the icons in the lists without needing to recompile (Which I doubt anyone ever did anyway seen as how hard it was to change the icons...)

so... FS 7013 is the patch, as well as a bmp with the default icons which will give you some idea of what the iconset bmp should look like.
basically, create your bmp 32*X wide and Y high where X is the number of pixels wide each icon is, and Y is the height of each pixel (both have a max of 24)
(The 32 comes from the number of icons you can theme in the code in app/gui/icon.h)

now, as I said, the patch isnt complete, so the only way to change the icon set is to edit config.cfg and add the line
iconset: /.rockbox/icons/.bmp

JdGordon:
hmm... I was expecting a bit more excitement over this :p
anyway new patch is online, the viewer icons are at the end of the bmp and its now vertical

David Marsh:
I have to admit, I'm not sure what this all means.

JdGordon:
all the little icons used in the lists... this lets you change them without recompiling.
also allows the icons to be any size up to 24x24 and full 16bit colour

Lear:
Neat. The default icons can be a bit small on some screens, so this is nice. On my H140 it isn't too bad, but I imagine it is worse on an iPod video using something like nimbus-19.

Then there's the status bar...  :P
