Custom Icons?

[samejima]

I could not find any documentation on making your own icons. Is this even possible? Also to clarify I mean like making a button using the Icon tag, not the graphical portion of it.

Again to clarify, I know you can add IconResource and IconRect but I figure there has to be a better way!

Sorry, I still don't get the question. For the graphical portion of an icon you'd add an iconstyle or iconresource/rect directly as you said. However, for making a button you'd usually use something like the button or checkbox instead. edit: For using an icon as a button see my post below.

You answered my question then. I figured there was an easier way such as Iconstyles. I dabbled with it shortly but no matter what I did the Icon would not change. Then I hard coded it via Icon Rect/Source, hence the confusion.

IconStyles do work though, unless I misunderstood again.

However, reading my post above it's not quite correct/complete, you can add an OnPress to an <Icon> if you add the TreatAsButton=true parameter, but you probably knew that also.

Aye, essentially I could not get IconStyles to work. So I just ended up hard coding it.

For the styles I think you needed to set BackGlowResource/Rect instead of IconResource/Rect. Or maybe it was in addition to. I'd have to check, just try it out.
