Template Oddities

[guest]

Using eCS 2.0rc4 with WPSWizard 0.6.1a1 and Noia-warm icons.

It appears that the Noia blank template icon is only used if a PNG icon is used on top of the template. If an ICO file is used on a template, then the old style template is shown. I have added PNG icons to all templates I could (can't seem to find the printer icons to change) BUT, there is one exception... the Command File.cmd template. Even though I changed it to a PNG icon (in the 'Properties' notebook on the 'Icon' page), the overlayed icon remains the original (see attached file 'Command Icon.jpg'). This is not a bad thing... I actually like the ability to overlay an ICO on the PNG template icon, but it does not seem consistent.

One other oddity... if I pull off a 'Program' template (which has already been changed to a PNG icon) to a new object, set up the file and path, then give the new program object a new PNG icon, the original 'Program' template icon changes to the icon I just gave the new program object.

Yes, template handling leaves room for improvement. The painting isn't implemented completely yet.

Command files are very special beasts. The WPS handles icons of them in a weird way. Will need some time to get command file handling done.

Your oddity seems to be a plain bug. At least that one should be easy to fix.

The following is fixed in V0.6.1a3:

-All templates are painted with the theme background now

-Images of objects created from template are now independent

The command file thing is not handled yet. I'll close this ticket anyway and reopen a new one for that.
