ico display in winform and taskbar

[Guest]

The image displayed by the form and task bar is a white image in both design and run mode - but the image of the app.ic
on the property page for the form shows the app image I edited

What is the trick to get the ico for the form to display the same image edited in VS ( the same as the app icon to start it )

Thanks Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for posting in the community.

First of all, I would like to confirm my understanding of your issue.
From your description, I understand that you wants to change the app.ico
file. And you find you change the app.ico. The ico of the mainform will not
change.
Have I fully understood you? If there is anything I misunderstood, please
feel free to let me know.

Based on my researching, the app.icon file will have two image type(16x16
and 32x32). You may check the open the app.ico in VS.Net and there will be
a new menu item(Image in the menu)

You may browse to Image/Current Icon Image Types and select a 16x16 icon
type, you will see another different icon with 16x16, change the icon will
change the icon in the main form you specified the icon to.

Please apply my suggestion above and let me know if it helps resolve your
problem.
