Building Custom Menus and Icons

If you build custom menus and edit existing icons or create new ones, you may have noticed button problems when installing your menu on other systems, i.e. "Smileys" or the softer, gentler "?".

To eliminate this, save your icons to specific BMP folder with a recognizable name. Then, in the MNS file find your button definition and replace "ICON1234" with "MYBITMAP.BMP" - where "MYBITMAP" is the name you gave the button. Oh, and be sure the BMP folder is in your path.
