Icon problems

sometimes icons don't show

from Stardock Forums

Hi,

When I add a new quicklaunch dock, I get three icons by default. How do I add these (system-) icons to any other dock at a later time?

I just tried to answer this question myself and created a new dock, with the intention to just drag one of the three item to the other dock where I wanted it. But to my surprize, the newly created dock did not show icons for the three items. I had to go in an manually add items to the items.

Also, I noticed that if I drag a URL from the Chrome or Brave browser (to the left of the https://...) the item is created but without an icon. Same when I have a shortcut to a URL on the desktop and drag this onto a dock, I get an item without an icon.

Cheers,
Gunter

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. I know the first default icon is "Start Menu" this you can add by right click on tab-> add->Docklet-> Start Menu docklet.

Not sure why it don't work on your system. But I can always drag icons from a dock to another dock. Unless you have turn on the "Lock icon dragging" function.

On URL issue, this I can reproduce, I have forwarded your problem/question to Stardock Support Team for their assistance. Please keep an eye on this thread for any updates. We appreciate your feedback and patience.

Hi,

just checking in if there is any progress on the URL problem - where dragging a URL from the browser onto a dock will create the item but without any icon.
