View 1 RepliesI have a vb.net 2008 application which has its corresponding icon.
The icon shows correctly except in the taskbar when the "small icon" setting is on.
My vb.net project includes a .ico file which when I see in the IDE includes 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 64x64 and 256x256 bitmaps, in 4, 24 and 32 bits, also 3 .png images in 256x256 32 bits each.
I made the icon myself simply using a 64x64 bitmap and then converting it to .ico, and assigning it to the application in the project properties. I thought windows would use and escalate the corresponding image, it shows even in the file explorer properly in the small icon form, but not in the taskbar.
I would like to how I can asign an array to a combobox.items. Which type have I to choose?

View 9 RepliesI run a software development firm that develops application for Windows Vista or higher. Windows Vista has a new feature called large icons, that allows display of up to 256X256 icons.
However, if I make an image that contains this icon file, the image just assumes that it should use the 32X32 one in the ICO file, even if I scale the image up to like 500X500 (in that case, it just scales the 32X32 one up).
