Taskbar icon different from the icon of the window

I actually tried this and it works.
I created an icon with different images for various sizes (I know, I'm not da Vinci):!http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm188/crossblades666/icon.jpg(Icon)!And then set that as an app icon. As I said the app window uses the small one (16px) while tha task bar takes a larger one (32px):!http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm188/crossblades666/app.jpg(Application icon)!
[quote author="ReDKiiL" date="1409265345"]Could you tell me if you like at least remove the icon of the window?[/quote]In Windows whether it has an icon or not depends on the window type and used windows flags. You can try to play around with window flags, eg.
@ setWindowFlags(Qt::CustomizeWindowHint | Qt::WindowTitleHint); @ but you might loose some other features in the process. Check other flags and see what you can come up with. For example tool windows(Qt::Tool flag) don't have an icon by default (but they can't be top level windows).
Another option is using the same trick as before: creating a fully transparent image for the 16px version. Of course this would also be invisible in the Explorer when someone switches to list view or other small icon mode. -

[/quote]Good! How did you do?
What program you use to create the icons? -
I did it "like I already described":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/appicon.html
I used built-in Visual Studio editor but it's not very sophisticated. Basically any graphics program that supports .ico format will do. Some that I know or used in the past are IcoFX (free up to 1.6.4), Gimp, Paint.NET (with ico plugin), Inkscape(vector graphics) or even Photoshop (with a plugin). -
That wiki page says it all but let me recap.
If you don't already use a .rc file (which you most probably don't) then all you need to do is add in the .pro file
@
RC_ICONS = whatever.ico
@.bmp format does not support multiple images in one file. .ico does. Use .ico.
-
You don't add multiple files. It's a single file.
.ico format supports multiple resolutions and bit depths inside a single file.
It has nothing to do with code(or Qt) and there's nothing more to show than the above line in the .pro file. -
Come on... do some work.
