Windows ICONS 48x48


Hello Group,
since years I use the starkit windows icon replacement with sdx.

I noticed that the starpacks from Pat Thoyts did not replace the 48x48 
icons:
customizing tclkit.ico in executable
   icon 32x32/16: replaced
   icon 16x16/16: replaced
   icon 32x32/256: replaced
   icon 48x48/256: NOT FOUND
   icon 48x48/16: NOT FOUND
   icon 16x16/256: replaced

while the starkits on Jean-Claudes page still worked.
Now, Jean-Claude has updated the starkits on
http://www.equi4.com/tclkit/download.html
and they show the same phenomenon as Pat Thoyts builds.

Has anybody the same phenomenon ?
I have read, that the icons should be in a special order.
I have extracted the icon from the starkit (so its own icons which 
should be correct) and I get the same error on 48x48 icons.

I would not mind to get any ideas befor doing the hard way and 
manipulate the starkit directly with other tools.

Thank you in advance,
Harald

If you have an icon file for tclkit that has the full set of icons in
the right order I can replace the kitgen .ico file and this will get
fixed. The newest equi4.com executables were built by me so thats why
they exhibit the same problem. The icon file we have in the
kitgen/files/tclkit.ico file was I believe copied from the old genkit
sources and I see it does include a 48x48/16 and 48x48/256 icon types
- so perhaps the order is changed for some reason.

If we can identify a corrected ico file soon then we can have

To follow up to myself -- I had reason to create a starpack and change
the icons and string version resources and I found no problem:

 C:\src\FTD2XX>sdx wrap MSC20Flash.exe -runtime
\opt\tcl\src\kitgen\8.5\win32-ix86\tclkit-gui.exe
 customizing tclkit.ico in executable
  icon 32x32/16: replaced
  icon 16x16/16: replaced
  icon 32x32/256: replaced
  icon 48x48/256: replaced
  icon 48x48/16: replaced
  icon 16x16/256: replaced
 customizing strings in executable
