Setup And Deployment - Choice Of Icons For Desktop?
Jun 24, 2010
Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} p {mso-margin-top-alt:auto; margin-right:0in; mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; margin-left:0in; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 {size:8.5in

I'm practicing using the setup and deployment project. I can add a shortcut to the desktop and give it an icon to display without problem. Many applications have a choice of icons to display for the desktop icon; when we right-click on the icon and choose "change icon" there is a box that appears giving the user a choice of different styles of icons to use for the programme. My question is: how can I give the user a choice of icons to be able to select which one to display? Do I have to make a dll file or is it another method?

I would like to add a choice of icons to the desktop shortcut I add in setup/deployment. I can add one icon, but when I run the project there is no option for changing it. The "change icon" button is greyed out. I've made a dll containing 3 icons and added it to the setup/deployment project (also added it to the test project).

Have built a project and associated it with a Setup&Deployment Project. The S&D project needs to contain 2 main folders (under User's Desktop) with various formats of files (xmls, txts, dlls) inside them and several subfolders. How can i copy/import these 2 folders and there sub-files/folders into my s&d project?
When adding them in the usual way, they are copied and defined a source path onto the current pc. You can understand what errors this might create when an another targeted pc does not contain those files to the exact location. Is there any way to copy them locally or somehow import them?

Is there a way in VB .Net to add specific icons to a desktop like "Computer", "Network",Recycle bin", and "User" files? I want to be ablse to use it for XP and Vista, but Vista as a main priority. In vista you can Right Click the desktop select "Properties", click "Change Desktop Items" in the left hand corner, and then select the icons you want. I thought that maybe there is a way to do it by calling that, or maybe a way to do it in the registry.

I am currently developing some application that's useful for me. And now I have one doubt about something.. My form has 15px Height and 100% screen Width, and it's located at 0,0 coordinates. This means that vissualy, it's little small.I've seen many applications that for preventing this kind of visual method from being positioned above desktop icons and windows, they manage to "Displace" everything down.[url]...

I have created a project that uses a listview associated to an imagelist (LargeImagelist, I have set the size as 100 x 75 and 32 bit depth), that displays information from a database along with an image from the image list. My listview is set to tilemode so that I can control the size of the tiles to get two columns of six. The image list is populated when the form is loaded from all the images in a specific folder, this part is working appropriately as I can get a picturebox working consistently that references an image from the imagelist.

It points to the direct path the icons should be located under the user profile. However, for some reason I've yet to determine, not all of the icons are in this directory.

I have three Setup and Deployment problems that are making me even more crazy than I have been accused of currently being.#1 - My project(heavy on text file streamreaders) installs as it should on the target machine but I can only run it on said machine as administrator(works great)... I have tried changing the permissions on the installed project and that did not seem to work. Error - blah blah cannot access [filepath]? ([filepath] is correct and verified. Ideas? Can I set permissions in the install itself? How so?
#2 - #3 (Basically the same questions)I have directed Setup to install a Program Menu and Desktop Icon and it does so. The problem is that the icons are non functioning. I dont see where I can set an actual filepath for them in the Setup menus?A good tutorial on VB 2010 Setup and Deployment wouldnt hurt if anyone has a link.

how to setup my deployment project so that users can customize thier own settings in app.config? Which special folder in the File System browser should I add, Personal Data, Application Data, or Programs Menu? How do I add the app.config to the folder? What about the project output, should it also be in the same folder? If so, should the project output be taken out of the Application Folder, in other words, exist in one place? I tested my deployment and was shocked that the icon only opened on the test user's pc after installation. I have custom settings in the app.config file that have default values, but must be configurable for user specific settings.
