Hi All,

I'm trying to change application icon. I want to change old icon that is set through JDE and replace that with other when the old one got focus.

Did anybody know how to do this?

If yes let me know too.

Also is it possible in 4.0.2. If yes let me know the way too.

Thanks

okay, that's 5 threads you've posted the same question to, 3 here and two over at blackberry.com, please just post once at each.

the application icon pre 4.1 is not able to have a rollover image, this feature was introduced in 4.1 after developers complained that rims own apps had rollover icons but there was no api for us to do it in our own apps. in 4.1 rim introduced the HomeScreen api which allows you to change icons at runtime:

try {
HomeScreen.updateIcon(icon);
HomeScreen.setRolloverIcon(rollover);
} catch (Exception e) {
}

HomeScreen now has a few other features including the ability to change the application title at runtime.

Hi,

It is ok to use the following code for rollover image...

try {
HomeScreen.updateIcon(icon);
HomeScreen.setRolloverIcon(rollover);
} catch (Exception e) {
}

but where should i put this code?

if i put inside main() method then it will not work when an application icon got focus.....
anybody have a possible solution???

Thanks in advance

Here how I am using it, and it works fine.


public static void main(String[] args)
{
theApp = new myApp();
.
.
.
}
public myApp()
{
try
{
updateIcon(...);
setRolloverIcon(...);

.
.
.
}
