the code is not updated to the latest innovations introduced perhaps deadwood can give you more information where to retrieve it :)

On AROS x86 there is an old bug that still manifests itself, basically if you try to rename an icon "without associated file or folder", the system crashes,

This problem exists also on AROS 68k

I'm testing your distribution integrated in my AROS One and I must say that the system is much faster, thanks for your great work !

I report two more problems with Icons:

- On Wanderer if you move a Folder/File Icon into another folder, the source cartel/file is not deleted

- Folder/File icon name cannot be renamed Upper/lower case "Error already exist".

I have some new code and apps for ABIv0 that I've been working on in ABIv1.

Several updated datatypes and SuperMultiView with Save As IFF and Save As PNG. Both work after an update to picture datatype to add DT_WRITE for ILBM.

Great! Is this code already merged to AROS master? If so it will eventually appear in ABIv0 without you needing to do anything, though it can take several monts before I catch up. If you want it earlier, you can prepare a pull request and I will merge it as well.

Some of the datatypes have been merged such as bmpx (bmp) and updated gif datatype. I have other changes that have not been merged for jpeg to allow reading 8bit b/w images and save functions for targa and pcx dataypes. I also wrote a working Save ILBM function for ilbm datatype. Not fully merged yet.

SuperMultiView or whatever you want to call it also hasn't been merged mostly because there is some disagreement about being true to the Amiga model and not introducing Save As PNG.

What I've been working on recently is the concept of 'Icon Alias' using Icon Library using an IconList from a selected IconSet to display alternate icons.

I have had some success with that. I'll work more with it to see what's possible. I think the alternate images and the original icon type is all I need. Not sure about stacksize and tooltypes.

In Wanderer that has been fixed in ABIv1 sources. It should copy and rename unassociated icons correctly now in the latest sources.

Hi All,

As new ABIv0 release is made, I'm locking this topic.
