In addition, you can customise the icons that are displayed for each application on the menu, and
also the icons displayed for the applications according to their mime associations.
The icons for the menu and the tabs are located under /opt/QtPalmtop/pics144. Qtopia will always
search this location for the icons first. If no icon is found with the specified name, then it will also
search under /opt/QtPalmtop/pics as well. If an icon exists with the same name in each location,
then the icon in /opt/QtPalmtop/pics144 is used.
The default icons that come with the default Sharp ROM on the C3000 are located under
/hdd1/usr/QtPalmtop.rom/pics144 and /hdd1/usr/QtPalmtop.rom/pics and are symbolically linked to
/opt/QtPalmtop/pics144 and /opt/QtPalmtop/pics144 respectively.
Similarly on the C3100, they are located under /usr/QtPalmtop.rom/pics144 and
/usr/QtPalmtop.rom/pics and are symbolically linked to /opt/QtPalmtop/pics144 and
/opt/QtPalmtop/pics144 respectively.
The icons for file association are by default searched under /opt/QtPalmtop/pics. When installing
applications, they add their icons to /opt/QtPalmtop/pics144 and/or /opt/QtPalmtop/pics. Usually
icons under /opt/QtPalmtop/pics144 are 64x64 in size and icons under /opt/QtPalmtop/pics are
32x32 in size. However, some special smaller icons of size 28x28 are also located in
/opt/QtPalmtop/pics144 and size 14x14 under /opt/QtPalmtop/pics
The icons can be customised by replacing the icons used by the applications or copying additional
icons to those locations and using the TabConf utility to change the icons used for the applications.
Alternatively, each .desktop file under /opt/QtPalmtop/apps can also be manually modified. If you
replace an icon by copying over another icon file with the same name, then you will not see the new
icon until you reboot because Qtopia still has the old icon in cache.
