Ugly icons (17.4) - can they be changed?

David M Gonzales
David M Gonzales over 3 years ago

Hello all,

I saw this old thread and wanted to offer my reply.

Yes, the icons can be changed.

Like many, I did not like or want to use the new 17.4 icons.

I have written a SKILL script that allows you to toggle between legacy 17.2 icons or 17.4 icons.

Not sure if anyone is interested in this topic.

Let me know... here is a pic of my 17.4 editor

    I would be interested in the skill code to change toolbar icons.

    Can you please share the UI for reverting back to 17.2 icons?  These cartoonish icons were definitely not designed by anyone who was using this tool on a daily basis resulting in more insult to injury.
