Hi everyone,
I'm trying unsuccessfuly to create a big icon (2x3 cm) from a JPG data.Labview needs some 4 files to create an icon. I used a third software (iconworkshop) to create these files. It worked well and LV accept them. But the problem is, the only formats I see when creating an icon with LV is 32x32 and 16x16. Thus the created icon is too small!Is there any way to make it bigger ?Best regardsKabanga |

| Hi Kabanga, when you start to ask for icon sizes in cm (!) I would suggest to go to lower screen resolutions...:smileyvery-happy:Just joking... |

When they get that big are they still an icon? Seriosly though, EasyPicture2Icon will make them up to 48X48. I believe that I got it from Download dot com. Hope that helps.
Cheers! |

Hi Gerd,
I didn't know if LV8.5 had added big icons for some reason (absurd resolution monitors? :smileyvery-happy: ) |

Hi Gerd,I wanted simply people to have an idea of how big I want the icon to be :smileyvery-happy:
I think it's a pitty that LV doesn't allow doing bigger icons !Is there really no way to do bigger icons? even with LV 8.5. I didn't try it !Best regardsKabanga |

with iconworkshop you get even bigger icons. The problem is with LV !!! why are they limiting that to 32x32 and 16x16 ?!:smileysad:

Hmmm... As far as I can see, LV supported from 16x16 up to 256x256 pix:

| Hi Andrey, thanks for the hint.It's the same with LV8.5 (no ".1") - I didn't use this feature so far as I remember having some problems (aka crashes) of LV when dealing with larger icons...Just tested it with LV8.2.1: This has problems to accept a 128×128 icon, whereas LV8.5 uses the same for building an executable. |
