Icons size will change accordingly to your new size specified in the skin, in the selector tree view.

WHile icons which are already inserted into a note, they will not, cause once icon is inserted, it's being converted in to attached image.

Right, the skin image source file are not included in to the installer, but counting that we are using 32-bit .png format, it has the same quality as original image, so you can simply create your won "editable" version out of it. At least I don't see how presence of layered .psd source can help in this case.

It cannot be one-time cause file association as well as associated app icon itself can change on associated app version upgrade, so always need to check. Yes, it can be done in the background, and many other tricks be done, due to this I see little sense in this task prioritization.

No. Only if you have some artistical skills, you can edit skins bitmap, the skin is just a .png file so you can edit it using any image editor, you can read details on skin editing here.

Also I haven't found editable version, only .png files in app's directory.

We'll add this feature soon - it's already partially implemented, but we have to hold on with release of this feature, first we'll release version 3 officially and after we'll add this feature.


Cool. Using 3.12 for some time :)

Indeed, it's on a list already. But priority of this feature is low because it has negative impact on app performance (need to load external icons is not a good thing).

When I select icons for folders/notes, they're too small. Can I increase selector's icon size?

I miss some icons and would like to add them. Even if they're tied to my databases or software instalation and I've to copy them from either.
