It will be a fixed solution, since there is no way to add a tooltip or a label to buttons. So, in order to have image and label, I have to draw the label inside the image. No option else. This also means people will have to edit the images, or provide alternative image packs, to localize them. Luckily, there are 18 images only, so no real PITA.

Making these additions is up to Dopus5 coders and, sorry to say this, the project does not look so active AFAIK, and there are dozens of bugs/new features requested 2-3 years ago for v5.92 still classified as "open" (so no one picked up or cared about them).

Please notice that I personally opened a ticket to ask for PNG support and for tooltips during year 2014 or so. So much time has lasted I even forgot about them, and discovered back when trying to open a new one... again! I am very worried about the transition to ABIv1 and 64bit, because of Dopus5.

This for sure is an improvement for people like me short in memory, However I think the best would have been adding the tip description over the buttons, but this is probably not a quick and simple solution.

Is this a fix solution or you can swap between simple icons and icons+description?

I find the lister toolbar buttons more useful but I can't remember more than a couple of the icons. Just today I was wondering if different designs would be easier to remember.


Hi, sorry for bringing up this old discussion again. But what about the new lister toolbar I am making for Icaros 2.2?

For the next icaros release I wish to have a white-oriented desktop wallpaper and theme. I'm turning to use the ice-fixed theme instead. Any help in making a new theme from a good graphician would be WELCOME as well.

NATIVE screenmodes are set by using Prefs/ScreenMode. If you can't access screenmodes anymore with Icaros default grub menu, it means that your video card is not supported anymore. And this should be reported.

I don't understand what you mean, really. I am using exactly the same kind of icons shown in the photos, but they depict the options currently set for Magellan in Icaros. I never understood exactly what image format is needed for Magellan toolbars, and could never edit them by myself. But if anyone is interested in creating a good set of alternative images for this toolbar and has the needed skills, he/she's WELCOME.

Do you mean it always boots to VESA or VGA? What graphics card is in the system you tried?
