Red ochre Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I'm probably missing something obvious here, but for me the forum icons don't appear to be in any order at all.Would it be possible to make three groups: pdn icons :LayerProperties: :AddNewLayer: , emoticons and 'other' , then arrange them alphabetically?I waste so much time looking for the correct icon - and getting it wrong!How do others use icons efficiently? ... is there a 'sort' button somewhere I have missed?Apologies if this creates extra work for a mod - but it would save much time and frustration. :Tools: 3 Quote Red ochre Plugin pack..............

david.atwell Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I don't have access to change the emoticons, but the way I make it work is to open the emoticons window, hit Ctrl+F, and then type in what I'm looking for. It'll go straight to it. 1 Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies.

pyrochild Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 There was no way to organize the icons last time I checked, but that was a few versions ago. I'll check again. 1 Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrochild Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Well that's stupid. There's an interface for organizing them into groups and folders, but it doesn't do anything. I can drag them around into something resembling a logical order, though. But anyway, I also use ctrl+f to quickly find the icon I'm looking for. 3 Quote ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it!

Red ochre Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 Thanks for the feedback - I will try typing the (guessed) icon name in.(I currently scroll up and down trying to spot the one I want!)Could the icons themseleves be re-named to get them in order (eg.A1 thru Z9 prefix) or does the forum software not order them at all? - I guess that would ruin the current way of doing things too.Just grouping all the Pdn ones together would certainly make life easier. (Thanks in advance Pyro). Oooh! you've done it already - brilliant Quote Red ochre Plugin pack..............

Ego Eram Reputo Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Oh, a shortcut. I had the list it tattooed on my inner thigh aagh and About :About: were Ok, but ZoomToWindow :ZoomToWindow: made my eyes water Not 100% sure that list is up-to-date. Seem to remember :heart: was broken a while back.
