Icons

Is there a way configure Profound Designer to point to our standard library of icons we've chosen for our web development? For example, we'd like to use eyeglasses to convey to the user that when selected, they can view detailed information about the subfile recod. For another example, when selecting a trashcan icon, the record in the subfile is deleted. We want to use these icons in the Action column of the subfile. See attached for our Action column. (The mouse, not shown, is over the eyeglasses icon so the associated tool tip 'View' is displayed.)

Thanks

I'm not understanding the problem. What is stopping you from using these icons?

Hmm... I just realized you posted this under Universal Displays. I assumed (and your screenshot seems to confirm?) that this was related to a Rich Display.

I'm really puzzled as to how this is related to Universal Displays. Can you explain the problem better?

Yeah, I think I posted this in the wrong section, however my question remains. The problem begins in the designer's icon property which only allows for the selection of icons from "Material Icons" and "Font Awesome Icons". How can we point the icon widget to our collection of icons to be specified in the same property, "Icon", under field settings?

BTW, the screen shot was taken from a Java application displaying a RichFaces grid.

Perhaps you can do this with a Custom Icon List?

Interesting. If I use this approach, will the customIconList appear in the dialog box that allows us to select an icon? .... and where do we place the JavaScript?

I moved this thread to the Rich DIsplays forum.

For information about where to code the Custom Icon List configuration option, or any other configuration option, see here:

In which directory should our icons be placed?

Sorry, I'm not familiar with the icon package you are using, I don't know how it works, so its impossible to suggest any details like directory locations.
