style admin tools icons

[crnogorac081]

Hi,

I came up to idea to have a different admin tool icons on admin tool dashboard instead default admintools.png

for example, if admin tool name is droplets, to put droplets.png image in modules/droplets folder and then if file exists (for backward compatibility) show this picture, else: show default admintools.png

it will make a WB a bit more colorful ) What do you think... ??

In WB2.9 this is already implemented.

if a file "tool_icon.png" exists in the admintool module dir that one will be used.

cool, but still not for 2.8.2 ((

Hello Ivan,

I am creating a new admin template and it will have the icons loaded from within the admin_tool_director y/tool_icon.png if it exists.
With a fallback to a standard Icon if there is none in the directory.

Kind regards,
Stefek

cool mate,

is it going to be for 2.8.2 and 2.9 ?

[Stefek]

Actually it's for the 2.8.2 version as 2.9.x seems to have an own mechanism for this (PHP based).

I can send you an alpha version of my backend theme if you like.

I need to clean some stuff up - but no time to do that at the moment.

Thanks for interest.
