RE: Perl Tk system button
Lynn, Many thanks for that - it worked a treat. FYI, the iconimage line has to be (re)applied to each new subwindow, or the "Tk" icon prevails.

RE: Perl Tk system button
Try using GIMP @ http://www.gimp.org/. It might be a bit of overkill to do it, but it will make xpm's. --Aaron From: perl-win32-users-boun...@listserv.activestate.com [mailto:perl-win32-users-boun...@listserv.activestate.com] On Behalf Of Spencer Chase Sent: Friday, September 11, 2009 3:57 PM To: Geoff Horsnell Cc: perl-win32-users@listserv.activestate.com Subject: Re: Perl Tk system button Importance: Low Greetings Geoff, Searching the perl install folder for images, I come up with Tk.xpm in perl/lib/tk which looks exactly like the re Tk my guess is that you can change this to another xpm and give it the same name if you don't want to find in which code the image is referenced to change it. good luck finding an image editor that can save in xpm format. let me know if you find one as I have wanted to do the same thing.
