Editor Window Icon

Overrides the Unreal Editor icon with user-defined icons. While available to source users, through replacing the actual content files used, this feature presents a non-destructive option to customize both the Unreal Editor's internal theme icon, as well as the window icon registered with Windows.

Theme Icon Editor Window Icon: Theme

Window Icon Editor Window Icon: Bar

Settings​

The settings for customizing the icons are found in the Editor Preferences under NEXUS > Core > Editor Icon.

Editor Window Icon: Settings

SettingDescription
AppIcon PathReplaces the Starship AppIcon style, can be in SVG or image format. This path is relative to the project root!
Window Icon PathReplaces the Unreal Editor window icon at a platform level. This should simply be the path to the file WITHOUT any extension. The extension will be determined by the platform, thus all resources should have the same base name, and be located in the same folder. This path is relative to the project root!
info

A restart of the editor is required for any of these changes to take effect.

tip

You can see that the Test Project exercises this functionality, referencing both NEXUS.svg and NEXUS.ico in it's preferences.
