Custom "runicon.ico"
Hello and sorry if this is super clear (have not been able to find any information regarding this in the manual),
but... since of 14.1.04 we're able to exchange the default "runicon.ico" with a custom one. I'm not able to find any information about how to do this. I found the folder "oldicons" in the default install dir of MS but I have no idea how to set my custom icon.
I would like to be able to use my own application icon together with my own "runicon.ico".
Thus, is it possible to have a application specific "runicon.ico" or is this only global?

Just put your chosen mainicon.ico and runicon.ico files into the main Macro Scheduler 14 program folder.

Re: Custom "runicon.ico"
Aha, okey... so I need to change this file for every complied script in order to have different runicon.ico? I'm not able to have it saved within the compile settings string as with the main icon for my compiled exe?
I hope you understand what I'm aiming for here. Thanks!

Re: Custom "runicon.ico"
Hi!
I cannot get this to work at all... I still get the GearHead-icon even if I put a custom runicon.ico in the main installation folder for MS.
I really wished that in the compile exe settings window I would be able to place two icon path's (one for the main icon, like today, and one run icon).
Am I missing something?

Re: Custom "runicon.ico"
And just to be clear. If I want a systray icon with a menu if clicked on, I need to:
Run the complied script as hidden
With no systray
Add a systray icon
Add a systray icon handler
In this way I will not get a (in my opinion nice touch) blinking/running icon but a static one instead?
I would like to have the default icon (which is blinking) and the possibility to add handlers to that icon.... Is this not possible?

You can't add handlers to the default icon.

Re: Custom "runicon.ico"
Will it be possible to have a custom main/run icon for AddTrayIcon> command? Or is that impossible?
PS. when I do a popup menu and click away it by clicking elsewhere (get the result "-1") the menu is still visible. Is there a way to do a HidePopupMenu> command?

Re: Custom "runicon.ico"
You can set the main icon when you compile to an executable. You can't change the actual Macro Scheduler one - when the script is running under Macro Scheduler it's only ever going to show the Macro Scheduler one. But if compiling you have the option of compiling in a custom icon. But no, you can't change it with AddTrayIcon.
