I was about to ask how you like it. I totally agree: This one is a keeper!Attila Kovrig ([url=http://icofx.xhost.ro/downloads.html]Download Language Files[/url]) wrote:Francais v1.0 - Translation by Claude Charries

I don't get any error message either. What I meant to say was that the IcoFX explorer/browser displays the preview of generic.png just fine, but when the image data is imported into the program it gets distorted beyond recognition (black):Clo wrote:¤ Your sample is displayed in XnView and other viewers as 38*38 - 8 BPP.
- When attempting to open it in IcoFx, I don't get any error message, but I get the “New icon” dialogue,
preset for a 48² icon…
…which is already totally black for the 38² original area…
Are you sure the settings are saved in the registry? I usually monitor all changes made to the system during installation and first start of a program. One of the reasons why I like IcoFX is the fact that it doesn't rely on DLLs/OCXs or registry entries.Clo wrote:- All is saved in the Registry, that's not very good… and from my point of view, rather a mast in the b** !
• Like you can see above, the Recent files (and some others ?) list is saved also in the registry,Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

Yes, of course. But this is — as the name indicates — a common, not an application-specific MRU list. Every Windows program that accesses files through Explorer-style dialog boxes temporarily leaves its traces in this particular registry key upon opening and saving.Clo wrote:• Like you can see above, the Recent files (and some others ?) list is saved also in the registry,
because the soft uses some Win function from the ComDlg32.dll library…
I certainly don't want to get into a discussion about the pros & cons of always running as administrator or the risks involved therein.Clo wrote:• At the first start up, I checked the <User> mess, and the folder of IcoFx was not created yet.
- It has been later, and I've this rathole too… Here :
E:\Documents and Settings\CLAUDE\Application Data\IcoFX\
- Such a path sucks a lot… I'd to set a button in Total Commander to reach it easily ! I never install any programme in "Program Files", I'm the only user-admin of my PC, so I would prefer the CFG file in the folder of the soft,
with an Option like XnView offers…

When I rapidly toggle the visibility of IcoFX's explorer panel (Ctrl+Alt+E) an error messages pops up, sometimes followed by a second one:This occurs with both v1.5 and v1.5.01.Clo wrote:• Point #1 : You were talking of an error message to switch the Explorer, were you not ? I've not that issue.
