graphics in /main/extras/source/symbols
Hi all,
what is the use of the Bitmaps in /main/extras/source/symbols?
I have not seen them anywhere in AOO but we bundle them with every
release...
Regards,
Matthias

Hi all,
It builds fine on Windows.
Since there seem to be no objections, I plan to merge this PR to trunk
by the end of next week.
Our Linux buildbot can do the test job then. Still open is a build for
macOS.
Regards,
Matthias

Hi all,
I think I have all commits now in place.
My build for Windows is still running, but if anyone could build PR #163
for Linux/macOS that would be great!

Matthias

I tend to concur. ;‑)
I read relevant tutorials / guides, looked deeper at the source code and
did some tests.
The "Customizing OpenOffice.org" guide [1] for version 1.1 states:

The OOo Help provides similar information.
It works exactly like described above. The version 1.1.5, unlike the newer
versions of the suite,
does not display the "Import" button. It allows you to reset the selected
icon to the default icon
via the "Default" button.
.
A change in the layout of the dialog probably happened in version 2.0
(I failed to find any version earlier than 2.2).

Czesław

Thank you for your detailed information!
IMO the complete directory isn't needed anymore, the UI does not provide
a way to attach a bitmap from there.
I plan to open a Pull Request for this. Comments welcome.

Hi all,
While compiling the Bugzilla report about the "Change Icon" dialog, I
learned something that might shed light
on the issue Matthias raised. Nothing conclusive, of course, as I haven't
studied the source code of all versions in detail.
ZIP archive (a .pdf file and .gif file) is available at the link given
below.
