Insert custom icons

[frankieorabona]

Would it be possible to implement a function that allows you to customize the account icon? For me owning many, it would be easier via custom icons to frame them right away (e.g. putting the bank favicon would be ideal)
Obviously not an urgent feature, but I think easily implemented

I'm afraid you are making an incorrect assumption. It's not so easy.

At present, the account icons are an integral part of the Theme you have selected to style the appearance of MMEX. See Options | View Options | Open Theme Manager.

You can define your own themes, either by building them from scratch, or by altering an existing theme. See https://github.com/moneymanagerex/themes

MMEX icons are Scaleable Vector Graphics (SVG) format, however not all websites provide favicons as SVG; some are PNG or even JPG.

However, a more significant issue is that the set of MMEX account icons in a theme is currently fixed; see https://github.com/moneymanagerex/theme ... counticons for a list.

So, to achieve what you want, you could modify a theme and replace the existing account icons with appropriate icons for your banks - but it's not as straightforward as you assume.

the easiest thing would seem to be to manually overwrite the preset icon files... however, I can't find the path. But perhaps that is precisely where the difficulty lies

The themes (and all the theme's assets) are in the .mmextheme files in the res folder.

.mmextheme files are just zip archives. If you open them you'll find a folders containing separate assets for light and dark mode. In there you'll find the accounticons folder which contains the .svg files. See the attached.

So, to change account icons, copy a .mmextheme file and give it a new name, extract the archive, replace the icons, and then rezip the folder tree. Then in MMEX, Open Theme Manager, Import your new theme, then Use it.
