Custom app icon not showing / overriden by Shotgun

[Ricardo_Musch]

Why is my custom app icon not showing and instead Shotgun’s Publish icon is?

My app has a “icon_256.png” in the root dir…

Hi Ricardo,

Are you passing in the icon path via register_command?

Ah, hmm…

I am not registering a command as my app adds callbacks to nuke and therefore does not need a menu item.

Is it possible to explicitly not create a menu item when registering a command?

Hi Ricardo –

I took a look into this today, and it looks like that thumbnail image is hardcoded:

shotgunsoftware/tk-multi-about/blob/master/python/tk_multi_about/app_browser.py#L51

I like the idea of having more descriptive ones. If you want to add that as a feature request, I’d encourage you to do that on our product roadmap page. Thanks!

[Ricardo_Musch]

Thanks Tannaz!
Small thing but would be nice

And it’s done! You can download the v0.3.1 of tk-multi-about and that should now display the bundle’s icon instead of the generic Toolkit icon.

Best
Phil

Awesome! Thank you!
