kde menu and wine application icons

Post by Cyllarus »

I've installed DAZ Studio 4.10 in Wine on my OpenSuSE Leap 42.3 x64_86 system, using KDE3 desktop. In KMenu, I can see

Code: Select all

Wine
  Programs
    DAZ 3D
      DAZStudio4
        DAZ Studio 4.10 (64bit)
and when I edit that entry I can select an icon

from the icon database (Yay!) but if I copy that menu entry to my desktop or panel,

the icon disappears, and if I try to edit the icon for the copied entry, (application-x-wine-extension-daz) is no longer available

(Boo!).

Where does wine store this icon? I'm unable to locate it using the icon browser.

Wine stores extracted Windows application icons using the XDG specification...

Typically this will under:

Code: Select all

~/.local/share/icons/hicolor/
The find command can come in useful here, e.g.:

Code: Select all

find ~/.local/share/icons/hicolor/ -type f -iname "D578_DAZ*.png"
You're probably better off just editing the Wine generated .desktop files in a terminal / using your favourite text editor.

I don't think the WineHQ forums have a facility to edit the subject line after creation... :cry:
Don't worry though - it's a pretty low volume forum anyway...
