Short: Forcefully set volume icon locations Author: rjd Uploader: 3246251196ryan gmail com Type: util/wb Version: 1.0 Architecture: m68k-amigaos >= 3.0 Distribution: Aminet Why would you want this? Well, if anything like me, you have been having trouble snapshot-ing icons in Workbench 3.1.4 when you select the 'backdrop' option for your Workbench. I tried all permutations to save the icon X and Y locations, but they always got trampled by something. I created this program (ForceIconMove) to forcefully re-set the icons to the locations I want them to be in. I run this in WBStartup with a resource file. You can get the usage information by just running: fim ? This program probably works with AmigaOS version < 3.0 but it is only intended as a work-around for an issue with 3.1.4 that others might be facing. This program is a hack and hopefully you will never need to use it. Snapshort-ing Ram Disk is not currently supported in this version. In general: - Get your icons in position on your workbench - Snapshot those icons - Extract this archive anywhere - Run 'fim Workbench: Work: Games:'; Your volumes will - probably differ - Copy the created RAM:ForceIconMove.res file to SYS:WBStartup - Copy 'fim' and 'fim.info' to SYS:WBStartup - Recommend adding 'DONOTWAIT' to the FIM tooltype in WBStartup - Be aware of icon positional clashes. You may need to duplicate entries to move icons out of the way first. Run 'fim ?' for an example
