    Form Icon

    Hi,

    I have an application that's being deployed using ClickOnce. Once
    deployed and installed on client machine, the form icon that I have
    added using the designer won't show up in any of the application forms.
    However, this only occures on one machine running windows 2003 server.
    Anyone expierance such problem? Any suggestions on how I should
    approach the problem.
    TIA,
    Rich

    What this computer shows instead of an icon? The Icon file can contain more
    than one icon images with different resolutions and colors. On of them is
    picked depending on the situation. For example an icon is added to a c#
    project VS creates ico file with two icon images inside one 16x16 and one
    32x32 if one opens the image editor by default one starts editing the 32x32
    once and very often leaves the 16x16 unmodified. Again depending on the
    situation the correct one migth be shown or ot could be outdated ones. That
    could be your case also.

      Thanks for your reply Stoitcho.

      It turn out to be a color depth problem. The icon was created using a
      32 bit color depth and the machine was running in 16 bit mode. When I
      changed the color depth in the settings on the pc the icon reappeared.
      This was driving me crazy for the past few days...
      Now I'm off to talk to the guy that created the icon #^&*^&*^. :)

        You can keep the old icon so the computers with bigger depth setting will
        show better icon. Just ask the graphic artis to add one more icon image to
        the fole for 16 bit color.
