- Welcome to Icondraw for Windows 3.0 Version 1.2
- -----------------------------------------------
-
- This is a shareware program, which I developed as a utility to help others
- in their pursuit of an ultimate graphical interface, fitting their needs to
- the fullest extent. I also developed it for personal reward. Now I would
- like to share it with others.
-
- This application is an icon editor, where you can make your own 16-color, 32x32
- pixel icons which fit into the PROGMAN perfectly. The following lists the steps
- required to change an icon in the PROGMAN (Program Manager):
-
- 1. Save the Icon to a file with an .ICO extension.
- 2. Click on the icon in the PROGMAN which you wish to change ONCE.
- 3. Choose File Properties.
- 4. Click on the "Change Icon.." button.
- 5. Type in the name of the icon with the full path. (e.g. "c:\windows\myicon.ico").
- 6. Click on OK, then on OK again.
-
- PRESTO! you will notice that the icon you specified now is visible in the
- PROGMAN.
-
- Version 1.2 Improvements:
-
- 1. All bugs are fixed as far as I know. Otherwise the features are the
- same.
-

- **************************************************************************
- P.S. I have developed an enhanced version targeted for retail. If you are
- interested in this, the following features will be available:
-
- 1. Grid for visual aid and accuracy.
- 2. Undo to cancel the last editing action including full clipboard support.
- 3. An icon library browser called LibView, which allows you to extract any
- icon from any icon library into Icondraw for editing as an icon file.
- 4. A Clipboard feature which copies the entire path of a saved icon to the
- clipboard so that it can be easily pasted (Shift+Ins) into the Program
- Manager File Properties Change Icon dialog box.
- 5. A help file which takes advantage of the Windows 3.0 Help System.
- 6. An Icon Pasting feature which allows you to paste any 32x32 icon into the
- drawing area of Icondraw. There is also a similar function which
- 7. TRANSPARENCY!!! This means you can have a clear icon background.
- 8. Finally, there is a manual, an appliation launching utility called
- AutoApps, 6 icon libraries, and 40 icons for you to customize, with a
- total of 440 icons images total.
