Downloading Icons

Post by Frankie445 » 24 Apr 2013 22:18

I am having a bit of a problem downloading new Icons, I try to download the file and save it into the following location C:ProgramDataCalicoPieFamilyHistorian but I can't find the location. I know it is there as I can access the Icon file when using FH.

Check the Knowledge Base under Program Data Folder - Notes.
There it explains how to reveal hidden folders such as C:ProgramData.

Remember that most Icon downloads are ZIP files that must be unpacked.
See the installation instruction in each download under FHUG Downloads ~ Diagram Icons.
The individual Icon files should be unpacked into the C:ProgramDataCalicoPieFamilyHistorianIcons folder so that Diagrams are portable from PC to PC and following re-installation of FH on a new PC.

You may also find the Plugin Install FHUG Icon Packs of use.
