Hi there

I was wondering if I could post that, so I'm asking your advice.

I found a way to change the little 16x16 processing icon that appears in the taskbar and such on windows when running an applet / application made with processing.

I just wanted to know if I could post it to the processing:hacks wiki, or if it would be better not to spread the info ^^

Thanks

I found this some time ago.
This is changing the applet icon/title (but not the taskbar icon, you'll have to check more, maybe looking around setIconImage -> setIconTaskbar/setTaskbarImage/... ?). Or maybe setting the icon in Setup as for this sketch I have a black taskbar icon which might be the one set in setup.

//the mouse X&Y controls the brightness and hue shift of the icon image
//you can resize the frame by dragging its corners
 
PGraphics icon;
 
void setup() {
  size(400,200);
  icon = createGraphics(16,16,JAVA2D);
 
  frame.setResizable(true);
}
 
void draw(){
  frame.setTitle("Frame Number "+str(frameCount));
  icon.beginDraw();
  //icon.background(102);
  icon.colorMode(HSB);
  for(int x=0;x<icon.width;x++){
    for(int y=0;y<icon.width;y++){
      icon.stroke((mouseX+(x*icon.width))%255,y*icon.height,constrain(mouseY,0,255));
      icon.point(x,y);
    }
  }
  icon.endDraw();
  frame.setIconImage(icon.image);
  ellipseMode(CORNERS);
  ellipse(0,0,width,height);
}
