(4/5) The documentation has nothing saying how to load this, that's the reason it only gets a 4. Else it has all information you need to use this and contact the author inside the snippet file.
Functionality:
(2/5) If the path has no spaces in it, it works like a charm. It opens a window and letting you select a icon by clicking on it, but...
If the path contains spaces, IE: C:\mIRC - dJabba Onliner\meditor.exe it returns 0 icons though it has 1 and opens a window in 0x0 size.
You should build in a check and display a $input if no icons where found it specific.
file...
Though when i look at the code, i cannot find an error on that, but my guess is that the error is somewhere in the drawpic command.
The window doesnt close on dobbelclick... you should be able to specify in the /GetIcon command if you want 1 or more icons to be selected - or detect it by CTRL key and make a marking function.
Make the signal name customize able through the /GetIcon command
Command suggestion /GetIcon -m MySignalName c:\Path To\Filename.exe (-m is optional trigger (detect if $3) to allow to select multiple, ie stay open)
Design:
(4/5) The window showing the icons looks very nice, however i suggest you remove the titlebar and make it open a popup on rclick instead with a close button. This can easily be done with a second @window.
Overall:
Overall this is a very nice snippet that can come in handy. If the things i meantioned above will be fixed it would be ownage. Keep on working on this.
i've made the update of this script releasable, though its got far too many things i have to do with it to submit it as an update to this one...its not exactly what you'd call stable. heres the code to the new one, it comes with a bit of documentation on top, so you should be able to figure out what to do: download it
note: i intend to update this at the end of each day with the compiled changes i've made throughout that day. (note: "end of the day" is used somewhat relatively here), so be sure to follow the link again, refresh the page, and recopy the script each morning to follow my progress. i sound like im making some commercial for PBS. im rather tired, im going to go to bed now ^_^
Thanks for the review, dJabba. I've got a few things to do with a different script, then I'll get around to updating this one.
Sparkle:
It uses a square root function based on the number of icons, which is why it doesn't resize...I don't have a lot of experience with picture windows, in fact this is my first script that has used them, so I'll need some time to get a better hang of them before I make it start doing nice things like that...Eventually, i"ll probably just make a fixed window size with an optional scrollbar for when its necesary. I have a ton of design updates in mind for this, I just need time to put them in.
