Hey guys,

Back in the days houdini used to store icons in $HFS/mozilla/documents/icons/large, which seems to be no longer the case. It seems that now icons are stored either in `SVGIcons.cache` or in `SVGIcons.index`. Is there a way to extract those into a set of svg files somehow?


Thanks,
Vlad

If you're using the icons for your own tools, you can actually use the File browser to get them directly without needing to extract the .zip file. There is an option right under Home Directory in the File browser, to browse the icon cache!

How do you replace icons in the SVGIcons.index?

Is that something that's automatically regenerated from icons.zip,
if the index and cache files are deleted?

Or is there a mechanism in place to override global icon set with the custom one if placed in the user or site pref folder?
