Icons from other ressources like Outlook.exe or SHELL32.dll

from Stardock Forums

Hello,

I use many links to batches in ObjectDock and want to use therefore specialy icons. For example for function "New mail" (creates a new blank mail) I want to switch icon to the mail-icon that is stored in outlook.exe. But if I choose Outlook exe, i get an summary of all icons in office directory uses by the exe-files. Not the icons stored in outlook.exe  . SHELL32.dll is not on access by usin "search fpr icon", because its not an exe file. Is there any possibility to access to the outlook icons oder windows icons stored in shell32.dll? Is there any idea or workaround? I don't like alternative icons, so an external package of similary icons is no solution for me.

Thanks. Best regards

Not sure which icon you want from that .dll but once you save it. Than you can assign icon to that link in ObjectDock. Right click on the icon you wanted to change -> Setting -> Customize this icon. Than Choose icon windows open. You navigate to that saved icon you extracted from that .dll. That should change it icon to the new extracted one.

Thank you,
