How to change table icons on the homepage

Post by lawrencekeru » 2017-05-18 14:48

Hi,

I want to change table icons permanently so that when i generate code again the book icon does not reappear.

Just like the northwind demo or ORPM when you generate code again the table icons do not change.

How can i do this? Please help. see image below.

I have followed https://forums.appgini.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=677 instruction from @a.gneady but after i save the icons, they do not show on my application.

Not really an answer to your question but in case someone wants a non technical way to hide the icons: I just saved a transparent 32x32px image to icon folder & in AG I selected that as the icon!

While you are in the AppGini program, select the table where you want the new icon. Click on the default icon next to the table name and select the icon you wish to use. You can also add your own icons if you want.

I did this but the default icon always loads even if you select 'Remove' icon, you still get an icon in your menu. Hence why I placed a transparent 32x32px image to icon folder so I just select that instead. Downside is the 'space' (32px of icon) is not freed up.
