Title bar icon question

picoevera · 21st October 2009, 15:29

Hi to all,

I have a problem on the icon. I have searched into the forum but I haven't found a solution.
I have created two icon, one for the installer file and one for the uninstaller.
I have set the icons( size 48X48 pixels) in this way into the script
!define MUI_ICON ".\Graphics\Icons\Icone_OL3_install.ico" !define MUI_UNICON ".\Graphics\Icons\Icone_OL3_uninstall.ico"
and it works fine.
The problem is the same icons are placed into the title bar of each page during the installation/uninstallation process.
You can see the effect in this image at the top-left.

Is There an option to set in order to avoid this behaviour? Or how I can solve this snag?

nsis version 2.45
Installer created on Windows Vista Business and launched on Windows Xp SP2

Thanks in advance

You need to add a 16x16 pixel icon to the 48x48 pixel collection. Most icon editors today allow for this.

Here is an open source one I did a quick Google search for.

Hi,

I have created a new icon 16X16 pixels and stored in the same dir of the 48X48 icon. The name of the 16X16 icon is name_icon.ico. The name of the 48X48 icon is name_icon-full.ico. Nothing is changed.
Have I misunderstood the naming convention for the icon?
I have had the same test with a 32X32 pixels icon but the result was the same.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance

Zinthose's suggestion was to add an icon to the existing .ico file. Ico files can contain multiple icons.
