IconPackager and Windowblinds 5

from WinCustomize Forums
Even though I have the setting checked in Windowblinds to automatically apply the corresponding icon package if available, the icons never get changed unless I manually open IconPackager and change them myself.

Anyone know how this can be fixed? Since the option is there in Windowblinds, I figured the icons should be changing automatically.

Thanks.

The majority of Windowblinds don't have an icon package with them. Some come with wallpapers, but very few come with icons.

Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear before. I have the IconPackager program and some sets of icons that go with some Windowblinds skins I downloaded (Artwork, for one, Buuf, for another). The icon packages have the same names as the skins.

In Windowblinds Basic Settings, there is a checkbox that says Apply Any Icon Packages Supplied (IP Required). It looks like that setting ought to automatically change the current icon set when you choose a skin that has one, but it isn't doing anything at all that I can see.

There also has to be a pointer set in the .uis file, I believe. Sometimes authors provide an icon set for IP that matches the WB skin as a separate IP download, often using the same name, but don't necessarily "link" it in the WB .uis file. It's analogous to the "Fonts to install" feature, but I can't quite locate it in SkinStudio's Explorer tree - it may just be a setting in the [Personality] or [Titlebar Skin] section of the .uis file.
