Update window icon to that of the folder currently showing (#316042) (1.93 KB, patch)

Description n0dalus 2005-09-12 02:35:55 UTC 
When you set a custom icon on a folder (and or emblems), and then open that
folder, the taskbar/window icon is still a plain icon, but it should be the icon
that you set it to be in the parent folder.

Thanks for your bug report! This sounds like a improvement suggestion.
Comment 2 Christian Neumair 2005-09-12 10:32:00 UTC 
Just some info for the developers: I've done a bit hacking.
nautilus_window_update_icon just does a set_icon_name, but should also be able
to take a pixbuf from the icon factory. We currently only lookup a name in the
icon factory (NautilusWindow::get_icon_name for NautilusSpatialWindow). We may
want to add a icon_factory_get_custom_icon_or_icon_name helper, which returns
either a custom icon (if available), or the name of a looked up named icon. This
pixbuf should then be propagated down to nautilus_window_update_icon.
Milestoning to 2.14 since it requires quiet some code changes and potentially
breaks UI freeze.
Comment 3 Christian Neumair 2005-10-03 12:29:19 UTC 
Mass changing Nautilus version for bugs that have GNOME 2.13 version info.
Comment 4 Sebastien Bacher 2006-05-10 14:04:31 UTC 
Ubuntu bug about that: https://launchpad.net/products/nautilus/+bug/43608
Comment 5 David Prieto 2006-08-02 12:22:42 UTC 
Well this was milestoned for 2.14... do you think it's going to be taken care of before 2.16?

This has already been fixed some time ago, can't find the commit right now though.
