Hello Guys,
i have problems with the icon file path in my shortcuts for batch files.
My targetdir variable is not targetdir, it is $TARGETDIRCLIENT$ and $TARGETDIRSERVER$.
The icon is blank/empty wenn I use the path to the ico file:
"$TARGETDIRCLIENT$\bin\delta_32x32.ico"
i am using native_engine
What can I do?

Dear MikKummerfeld,
I just tried to verify what your reported, but honestly, I don't see any problem with the assigned shortcut icon.
I used a Native Engine IA X5 project, installed the icon file to the TARGETDIR and then assigned it to the "Icon File" parameter of the "Create Shortcut" command.
For the icon file I used a multiformat icon file and which includes all the different image formats from, 16x16 to 256x256.
Hope this helps you.
Regards

Hi Francesco,
I install the .ico file in the TARGETDIRCLIENT path and after that I use "$TARGETDIRCLIENT$\shortcut.ico" but it does not work

The ico file is available in the destination folder but the Shortcut has a White blank icon

I cant understand...

Dear Heiko,
as I said previous previously, are you sure about the correct format of your icon file?
Regards
