- Short: V1.1 Icondrawers for non-laced WBs
- Author: Gavin@eagle001.demon.co.uk
- Uploader: Gavin@eagle001.demon.co.uk
- Version: V1.1
- Type: pix/icon
-
- Laceless is an icon collection for non-interlaced Workbenches and, at
- present, contains icondrawers - both for the Workbench standard drawers and
- for some general-purpose application drawers, and a few icons for prefs
- editors.
-
- The icons are drawn in the standard 4-colour palette for WB 3.0 and are
- about 1 pixel higher than the standard drawer icons (this is due to the way
- WB puts borders round the icons). All the files are exactly the same size as
- the originals, except Prefs.info which is smaller!
-
- The archive contains an installer script which will change your existing
- icons to the Laceless ones. The script is nicer with the IconPos utility from
- the WB3.0 install disk, but can function perfectly well without it. If you
- don't have IconPos, then the install script will just copy the icons, and you
- will lose any snapshotting which has been applied to the icon or its drawer.
- With IconPos, the images are copied across without disturbing the position of
- the icons, or the size of their windows.
-
- The archive also contains a small script file to apply icon images to
- existing icons, this too uses IconPos and requires that an assign be set up
- to point to the Laceless drawer (this can be handled by the install script).
-
- As of V1.1 onwards I have included Laceless style icons for some popular
- programs' prefs editors. These are:-
- ClassAct, MagicMenu, MCPPrefs, NewIconsPrefs, TurboPrefs & Yak.
- These were created to give a consistent Prefs drawer, although I have
- since removed the Turbo Print demo from my system, I'm still including the
- icon for you lot (aren't I nice? :-) )
- These are all 4 colour except for NewIconsPrefs - which is 8 colour, but
- still looks OK on a 4 colour Workbench.
- These icons are NOT installed by the installer script, as I think you
- should choose for yourself if you want to replace someone else's work with
- mine. I'm not a megalomaniac, honest. :-)
-
- Laceless is FREE. Just send me an email if you like (or dislike) the
- icons. I'm open to (constructive) criticism, and any suggestions that are
- taken up will earn the suggester a greet in the docs (big wow :-) ).
-
- Use and enjoy!
