change the bar manager resource path

[Jo-Jo]

I want to store some custom icons in a folder that is not the current bar manager resource folder. I know there is a way to change the bar manager resource path, but I can't remember how, and I haven't been able to find out how to do it.

Does anyone know how to change the bar manager resource path?

I think I just figured it out. If I create a folder named "MyBarManager" and save my desktop file in the same location, then DIAdem uses the newl created MyBarManager as the resource folder.

Hi Jo-Jo,

That is correct. Custom icons need to be in the same folder as the *.DDD file you're using or in a subfolder.  My understanding is that the working folder property is read-only.  I certainly have not gotten it to point to an arbitrary location.
