@Karlis: Filetype Icons

Hi Karlis,

please make my life a little more comfortable when browsing through my projects' folders! You should implement these Filetype Icons to WeBuilder:

You could also make a new Menu-Item in WeBuilder Configuration where users can not only define File Associations but also THE ICONS for these Filetypes...

THANK YOU!

By the way, I think that filetype icons and correct file association should be no feature that needs to be requested.

When I select all filetypes to be opened with WeBuilder, nothing happens.

I am using Vista SP1.

Thanks in advice Karlis, i hope that you implement this.

Why should an app change file type icons only within the application itself, that makes no sense to me :| ?

If you want specific file type icons - then I suggest you want them system wide and not only in WeBuilder. Why don't you just use a program which fits exactly those needs, e.g. IconPackager from Stardock (don't want to advertise, it's just the one, which came in my mind first)?!

Maybe you should have a look, and try such a program ... I already do so - having the file type icons, that I prefer in every app :)

Greets, Evil

It is not possible to change icons for Filetypes in Vista as it has been in XP, i have tried several progs eg. IconPackager to change these icons. But it is not possible to change them. It's just simple: When i'm installing Office, it gives every filetype an icon, ... so it should be here too.
