Subborn Icon
« on: June 26, 2016, 06:40:16 PM »
Hi All, I have an icon for Photogenics that insists on setting itself in the middle of my system disks and I can not get it moved to where I want it on my Workbench.  Running 3.9 with all the boing bags and updates.  Can someone please explain to me how I can get this moved to where I want it to be?
Thanks for the help

Move it and then snapshot?

You should select it an chose "Leave out" from Icon menu - this will create a file on the root of disk, named .backdrop that contains the relative path and name of what you left out. If you have problems having the icon left out, it is probably due to the file .backdrop not being writable somehow. And if you struggle with not being able to snapshot the icon to the location you want, you should check that the icon file (Photogenics.info) is indeed writable too - "protect Photogenics.info +rwed"
