by putting back an original menu.ml file, you restore the default icons. Also you can edit a menu.ml file to use default embedded icons for some menu items, and your own modded icons for others.

In menu.ml, there are these lines that set the icon that will be displayed
Code:

<icon pos="unselected" source="internal">PREPLAY_DESKTOP_ICN</icon>
<icon pos="selected" source="internal">PREPLAY_DESKTOP_SELECTED_ICN</icon>
<icon pos="shortcut" source="internal">RN_SHORTCUT_LIST_PREPLAY_ICN</icon>


PREPLAY_DESKTOP_ICN in this case is the "Play Now" inselected icon.

If you write this instead, it uses your own icon file:
Code:

<icon pos="unselected" source="file">icon1_unselected.png</icon>
<icon pos="selected" source="file">icon1_selected.png</icon>
<icon pos="shortcut" source="internal">RN_SHORTCUT_LIST_DB_ICN</icon>



The icon file "icon1_unselected.png" is saved in the same folder as the menu.ml file. The "shortcut" list icon will be the standard one in this case (RN_SHORTCUT_LIST_DB_ICN)

So you can mix and match default icons with home made.

actually I think it may support animated gifs, but I'm not sure about that. It's worth a try.

element id="MusicRecognition" seems to be the only menu different to K800.

it's really beautiful, but can you make a k790 version. reason: K790 menu misses 1 icon (radio) becuase k800 has videocall in its place. now I have only 11 icons in the menu. so, instead of the videocall link, can you make a radio link? please...

Edit: Nevermind, I did it myself. If anyone needs it, I'll post it.

Very Nice!

BTW, I have a request that people developing menu icons stick to the naming convention so that all icons can be used with any menu.ml file. For example the names usually used are icon1_unselected.png etc. The iphone theme icons are item1_unselected.png. This means for example if I want to use the icons with my own menu.ml file I have to rename all the icons or edit my menu file.

That is if you are happy for your icons to be used with other menu's.

is this extracted from the default K810? or just a modified K800 menu?
