icon in project Browser

In the project browser, some of my families have this icon adjacent to them (see attached). What does the represent?

  

At first i thought it was indicating adaptive components, but there some families that are adaptive but don't have an icon.

 

Any ideas?

Hi,

 

What does the tooltip say? --> hover over it witg your mouse without clicking and wait a few seconds until a text shows up.

In the Project Browser? I'm not aware of any icons anywhere in the Project Browser any deeper than the top-level items of the heirarchy (like the one next to "Families" in the picture below).

My guess is that it's coming from an add-on. 

 

....or it could be a mapping issue. 

 

...I think the icon means: "This family in the project also has a shared family associated to it."

you know what it might be? A font character. How does it read in the dialog box when you right-click on it and pick "Rename"?

Seems to be a bit random. Doesn't always show.
