   i do not really like user inter­faces that empha­size using of prepo­si­tions. this is not about ui really, but this could be wery bad for trans­la­tion teams, espe­cially non-indoeuropean lan­guages that do not use prepo­si­tions so heavily.

   I like it.

   But where is the path edi­tor to look for another icons?

   That’s look­ing nice– any chance some of those enhance­ments will find their way into GtkIconView, or is EggIconCHooser too different?

   Thank you, sir! You are a gen­tle­man and a scholar!

   I thought about some­thing like this a year ago or so.. seemed like some low-hanging fruit.

   I like it lots.

   A sug­ges­tions: if I’ve just cre­ated a link to a binary called ‘evo­lu­tion’ or ‘fire­fox’ or what­ever, could it select an icon whose file name matches automatically?

   Thanks.

   Mike

   (Figured I’d get around to reply­ing to all these now, when nobody is pay­ing atten­tion any­more )

   non-english: Hmmm, I wasn’t con­sid­er­ing trans­la­tion prob­lems when craft­ing it. I’ll storm about some alternatives.

   aam: There’s an “other” item in the com­bobox that uses a FileChooser.

   quinn: GtkIconView is more of a gen­eral “show me a bunch of data from a GtkTreeModel in a grid” wid­get (at least in 2.7), and EggIconChooser uses it to dis­play icons from an icon theme. So the short answer is “no” .

   Mike: That fea­ture is out­side the scope of the wid­get, but the “dot-desktop edi­tor” wid­get that the panel and nau­tilus use could eas­ily set the selected icon to match the exe­cutable name if it used EggIconChooser.
