Button to change AppImage icon

Closed this issue · 1 comments

If we can already replace the icon of an AppImage in the .icons/ folder and have it instantly reflect in the .desktop file, and therefore the desktop environment, I think it would be nice to have the option to change it in the Gear Lever UI, which will basically do the exact same thing.
Maybe a button to open the DE file picker, or just a simple drag and drop into the opened AppImage info screen.
Obviously the Reload metadata button is useful to reset the icon.

Hi,
I'm sorry but I have no plans to implement this feature.
I think that a tool like Gear Lever should just be an helper to integrate appimages, just like an app store.
These app should then run as the original developer intended to. If you want customizations, there are already some great tools out there
