Ranorex Forum

Hi,

I am wondering which might be the algorithm by which Ranorex picks the icon that is displayed next to a top-level app folder in a repository, and whether it is possible to convince it to use a different icon. The reason I am asking is that I have five app folders for modal dialogs with almost identical RanoreXPath, and Ranorex displays four different icons. The one next to "Generic_Dialog" is the application's icon. I am attaching a screenshot of the repository. Thanks
Hans

Hi Hans,

This is generated by the System.Drawing.dll in the .NET Framework. The icon that shows up in the Repository is dependent upon the type of object that Ranorex detects when that object is added to the Repository. I hope this helps!

Since the app icon is being regenerated every time when an app folder child element changes, there are plenty of changes on git commit, which one does not expect.

thanks
