O.P. Roll Eyes  Icon Hooking?
Lately I've seen it in a few plug-ins, and in MPL, add their own icons to the main-window in WLM... Does anyone know how to go about doing it? Anyone have any sample source [C# pref.]? Check the attachment to see what I mean...

Thanks.

RE: Icon Hooking?
One possible way of doing this is an API hook on the resource loading function LoadResource(), which IIRC returns a handle to a resource. It's not inconceivable to load the original UIFILE, copy it, add the icons, and return the new version as the resource.
