Drive Button Images

[adacom]

will start with an apology if this has been covered - i searched but could find nothing

is there a way to change the image on the drive buttons please

[petermad]

Right click an button and chose "Change..."

That is for button bar icons.

To change the drive buttons you can make a .dll file with the desired bitmaps (bmp) and then use this in the [Configuration] section of your wincmd.ini file:

Code: Select all

DriveLib=%COMMANDER_PATH%\drive_classic.dll

I have put two such drivelibs in https://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/drivelibs.zip for you

You can also use OldDriveIcons= in the [Configuration] section of your wincmd.ini file.

OldDriveIcons=0
1: Use old drive icons from TC 6.5x for drive button bar
2: Use drive icons from TC 7.x / 8.x
0: Use drive icons from Explorer

This is about drive buttons, not the regular buttons on the button bar.

See TC help, section 4.b), options OldDriveIcons and DriveLib. Apart from that there's no way to change these icons, let alone unique icons for one specific drive if that's what you intended to do.

He colleagues, I had already removed my mistake answer
and wanted to change it to:


Press F1 and read "Configuration and Switches >Ini file Settings"

DriveLib= Load icons for the drive buttons from the DLL file specified.
DriveLib.bak= Backup of user-defined drive library from DriveLib= option. Moved here when user checks the option "Show drive icons from Explorer".


Google for tc and DriveLib= to find more help, e.g. to find

You could use drive850.dll in https://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/drivelibs.zip as a template and then use Resource Hacker ( http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/ ) to replace the bitmaps.
