NWJS Aapp icon on taskbar is making a new instance of the icon next to the original on the task bar? - nwjs

I don't know if im using the wrong size favicon from my package.json or what? I also used resource hacker to change the icon of the nwjs.exe app with the same icon but an ico of all standard sizes. I also tried using and ico of the favicon instead of a png at a particular size but it still give the same problem? Mayne not link to an icon from the manifest at all since I change the icon of the exe with resource hacker? Some apps I've made it didn't do this at all and then randomly on other projects it does this. I even tried making a shortcut of the nwjs.exe app and using the shortcut on the task bar and it still does it. Any ideas on why this behavior is happening?
If I can provide any other details to help resolve this let me know and I will add via edits to my post.
The way it should behave
Before I launch app
After I launch app
Ive tried different size pngs for the favicon ive also tried using a ico

I think you pinned an executable that launches another executable.
Click on the icon in the task bar
The app will load
Right-click on the left icon > Unpin from taskbar
Right-click on the remaining (right) icon > Pin to task bar
Close your app
Wait a couple of seconds
Click on the icon
Did that work? If not, right-click on the icon > right-click on your app name in the context menu > properties. What is the "Target" value.

Visual Studio Code (Vscode) File Icon Issue: File Icons not showing in tab bar next to file opened. --See Details and Pictures Below

This is my first stack overflow post. I am learning web development so please bare with me.
I was watching a tutorial and notice the Youtuber had icons showing in the tab where you have open files to work on them. On mine they only appear on the side bar? Has anyone experience this problem and know how to fix it?
My Vscode appearance
This guy on Youtube Vscode appearance
Another guy with the same thing
The settings are set right and I tried the settings with Seti (default) and Material Icon Theme (downloaded) and both have the same issue.
My settings screenshot
My extensions screenshot
Okay, so I am very dumb and I can't do simple searches apparently.
The toggle icon option was deselected in the settings apparently.
Once I selected it, the icons appeared and it was a simple fix.
It was a setting option this whole time!

Live Server icon on status bar in VSC

This is my first question in this forum. I have annoying problem:
I cannot add Live Server icon on my status bar and thus I am not able to preview my page.
I have used LS before but it's been attaching it's icon automatically.
I've already checked option i confid which was suppose to do that but it is enabled.
Any idea? please help
First you must install Live Server in the packet of VS Code
Then you can click right mouse on your HTML Code and choose Open with Live Server
Try right-clicking on the status bar (i.e., the bar located at the bottom) to bring up the following menu. See if there's a tick next to "Live Server (Extension)". If not, click on this item and you should be able to see the Live Server button in the status bar.

I am not able to preview the icons on vscode while browsing?

As seen in the picture I'm browsing the icons but none of them are shown.
Is there a change in a new update or am I missing something here> it used to show the icons while I browsed.
There should be an arrow appearing when you hover on the right side of the tooltip stating "read more". Simply click once and therefore the icons preview should always appear.
Pressing the Ctrl + space in windows can show and hide the icon
press ctrl+space two times,
1)to open icon menu
2)to preview the icon
go to preferences settings and search for "previewlsp" its a dart setting change it to true and restart VsCode then you will be able to preview icons.
I had the same issue. I maximized the VSCode editor, closed the navigation pane on left, and aligned the line most left then icon preview comes into the screen as you can see in the picture.
I don't know the root cause of the problem but the above scenario fixed my issue and it works now. It might be a Flutter/Dart extension-related topic.
If I would find the real root cause and proper solution, I will update my answer. I hope this workaround works for you too.

It works for me with setting Dart Preview Flutter Ui Guides setting
Go to Setting and search "preview"
Go to Dart part(see the left part)

NetBeans: display only icons on window title

i've got 1024x600 resolution and cant afford a lot of windows opened in NetBeans.
Is there a way to display only icons in window title?
For example:
Icon1 Projects
Icon2 Files
Icon3 Services
...
Can it be like:
Icon1
Icon2
Icon3
?
Probably not. You may want to start NetBeans with --fontsize 10 or similar to save space. Also change toolbar to use small icons (right click in empty toolbar area to display its menu) or completely hide all its components. If I remember correctly they may have been a special switch to merge menu and toolbar to save space but you would have to scan sources and it is likely broken now.

How to use github icon set on fontello

Fontello has an area where you can drag custom fonts onto.
GitHub style page here shows they have a custom font I want to use on that fontello can someone please help me to import it.
Yeah I love the GitHub icon font "Octicons" too. Unfortunately as far as I know they're assumed to not freely available to the public - see here: https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/191#issuecomment-6180040
That said - I just did some source file snooping and grabbed the TTF and other files here if you wanna try this on fontello? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7951258/fonts/octicons-from-github.com_20140302.zip
PS: If you do find a way to get a hold of them legitamitely please post an update though!
Go to GitHub Style page HERE
Open the inspector Ctrl + Shift + C
Click on Fonts
Click on "See all fonts used in this page"
Find octicons section
Highlight and copy (with Ctrl+C, cant right click here) that box below >Used as: "octicons"
Open notepad and paste it there.
Find the format(svg) and copy it
Go back to firefox, type in http://github.com/ and then paste the string you copied so now in URL bar it says https://github.com//assets/octicons-cdc456dbc5906e59b8c4d1c649a4b734fb0fd97b.svg#octicons
Hit enter and now right click in the page after it loads and go view source
Save this source to your drive
Now go to Fontello tab and then drag the downloaded file into the area on Fontello site where it says "Drag custom SVG icons or SVG font here" on fontello
DONE. Wait and magically all the github icons are now available to you!! Its grouped as "Custom Icons"
Super cool!!
