# Changing Toolbar Action Icons

There are ten action toolbar items named Action 1 through Action 10. These toolbar icons can be associated with specific actions in the Action Manager. Using this panel, you can assign custom icons to be used.

There are four columns displayed:

#
  The Action icon number.
Default
  The built in icon. This is what gets displayed if never changed.
Current
  This is the icon that will currently be displayed. ie. Before any changes are made.
Apply
  This is the icon that will be displayed if changes are applied.

To change an icon, drag an image or image file to the target. The image displayed in the Apply column will be updated for the selected item.

You can reset all or individual icons to their current or default values.

Note that the icons are not saved in the application preferences. They are saved in a folder named:

> ~/Application Support/Yate/Icons

If you want to have the same icons on more than one Mac, you can always simply copy the folder which might be less work that changing the icons in more than one place.

When an image or image file is dragged to the target, the following occurs:

- It is resized down such that the largest of its width and height is 64 pixels. This is twice the size of a regular size icon on a toolbar. The doubling is to account for Retina displays.
- If not square, the image is squared and filled with a transparent background.
- The images are saved as PNG files named Action #.png

Note that the same transformations are applied when the icons are first read when the application starts.
