Can I change the icon of the widget group in Launch Pad theme?

[JakeCliffton]

I would like to change the icon of the widget group: need to change the folder icon to the query icon.

But the Develop Edition does not provide any options for that. Can I change it from the source code somewhere? Thanks a lot!

Jake,

  Sure just change or edit the group_icon.png:

[install dir]\server\apps\[app #]\themes\LaunchpadTheme\widgets\AnchorBarController\images\group_icon.png

Is there any way to change the folder icon if you a have more than one group? I'd like to have a few widget groups with different icons for each group if possible so its easier to distinguish types of tools.

also- is there a place to see the images used for each widget? I started my app in AGOL and then imported to the dev edition so I am not sure where to look for this stuff

thanks

C E,

  You would have to do some extensive development to have a specific icon for individual groups (I have not had a need to attempt this so I don't have any code for this). The icons for each widget are inside the widgets folder in the images folder (called icon.png).

Thanks Robert-- that's kinda what I thought in terms of the amount of effort it would take. I'll stick with my original plan to make unique-looking custom icons for each type of tool to differentiate and save the folder for something more generic. thanks for the quick response.

You can change the icon of groups by adding the code after line 20.

    _addDefaultOfWidgetGroup: function(config){
      //group/widget labe, icon
      jimuUtils.visitElement(config, lang.hitch(this, function(e, info){
        e.isOnScreen = info.isOnScreen;
        if(e.widgets){
          //it's group
          e.gid = e.id;
          if(e.widgets.length === 1){
            if(!e.label){
              e.label = e.widgets[0].label? e.widgets[0].label: 'Group';
            }
            if(!e.icon){
              if(e.widgets[0].uri){
                e.icon = this._getDefaultIconFromUri(e.widgets[0].uri);
              }else{
                e.icon = 'jimu.js/images/group_icon.png';
              }
            }
          }else{
               if (e.label === "my group"){
                    e.icon = 'jimu.js/images/mylogo.png';
               } else if (e.label === "my group1") {
               e.icon = 'jimu.js/images/mylogo1.png';               
               } 
               //add as many custom groups icons you wish....
               
               else {
                    e.icon = e.icon? e.icon: 'jimu.js/images/group_icon.png';
                    e.label = e.label? e.label: 'Group_' + info.index;
               }
          }
        }else{
          e.gid = info.groupId;
        }
      }));
    },‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Have you tried adding icon and your icon location in your main config? Something like this.
