Description Luke Sandell 2004-04-27 04:21:32 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:          Linux

I love being able to customize my toolbar for every KDE application. The problem is that most actions available in "Configure Toolbars" do not have icons.  When I add one of these  to my toolbar I get the generic "ascii.png" icon.  This is not very helpful, especially since I can't distinguish between these buttons. 

My request is to allow customization of icons on tool buttons.  There could be a RMB entry for each button that says "Choose Icon..." Then it could just bring up the standard icon selection box and let you could choose your icon.

I know you want to have consistent icons, but icon selection seems to be the only way to make custom toolbars worthwhile. Maybe you might want to only enable it for actions that don't have associated icons.

CVS commit by faure: 

Support for changing icons in kedittoolbar. Needs uptodate kdialog with --geticon.
Factorized some code with kactioncollection (for saving ActionProperties).
