Content Center Folder Icons - Location

Anonymous

Anyone knows where the icons for content center folders are stored (Inv2018) ?

The only thing I found about this is here 

https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/content-center-icons/m-p/1962275/highlight/true#M25268...

but the post is ancient and I cant find anything close those folders on Windows 10.

 

Thanks

I thought that was built into the system unless you re-direct it using the Content Center Editor and change the family properties of the category.  @cbenner can you confirm.

I have no idea how the icons are generated and if they're stored somewhere.

I'm just copying them to clipboard, save them as bmp, and reuse them for new folder icons.

Can't really think of any other idea.


Thanks.

 

Edit:...as in copy the folder structure to a new read/write custom library? 
I've tried that, but it copies everything, the whole folder structure, plus I don't think there's a way to move and arrange folders after, unless I'm missing something.

Hi, 

 

@liquidspoon

 

Please select the category if you want to get the icon, right click, no any changes, click OK button. Go to folder C:\Users\{user name}\AppData\Local\Autodesk\Inventor 2018\Content Center\PC\CatIcons, you would get the icon files, please convert these to BMP files before using these. Thanks. 

 

Thanks,

-Rui
