* Diagram Icons in FH7

[rodit]

Having come to grips with some of the changes - including the Text from Source stuff - I find that I am unable to use the Icon facility in Diagrams as I used to do.
I have used the icons downloaded from Brian's Icons for Censuses, B, M, and D, recording , little pictures of Miners, Ships, etc. These are all in a sub-folder, but, as I have said, I am unable to find a way to access them. I am told that I can select a Custom Icon from a sub-folder, but there does not appear to be a way to access the said sub-folder.
The Box Feature Dialogue says:

When you select a custom icon that is in bitmap format, a field appears, Size....

What have I missed? How to select?
Regards

You must add your Icon files to the Icons folder in:
C:\ProgramData\Calico Pie\Family Historian\Icons
You can use your own sub-folder similar to ones already there.

If you click Help on the Box Features dialogue it explains that process.

I read all that in the Help segment. The problem was the ProgramData folder
After a lot of Googling around I discovered that the ProgramData folder is HIDDEN. I then had to find how to UNHIDE (?) it.
The problem has now been resolved, but it is becoming apparent that a degree in computer programming is becoming more and more a perquisite for using FH.
Thanks

Sorry, I should have referred you to the KB Family Historian Program Data Folder advice that explains the secrets.

There is also the Install FHUG Icon Packs plugin that automates the process but still needs updating for FH v7.0.

All is revealed!
