I am stuck in a wierd problem here that most probably many of you have faced.
I have added some custom applications(eg: eclipse and quartus) using the launcher applet to the GNOME Panel and the Menu. But unfortunately I just could not find a way to assign their default icons.When choosing the option to select an icon for the launcher, i am allowed only to choose SVG files ! But in the application folder I can only find xpm / PNG files. The default SVG files dont have the icon I am looking for.
Is there a way in GNOME to assign any picture file as ICON to a launcher in Panel ? I don't want to go about, converting icon files of every custom application shortcut on panel to svg. I believe this should be a painless process.
any help would be appreciated.
