Reassigning to "form". It really is not possible to enter a relative path in the current icon property editor. In fact, this use-case was unsupported in the previous version as well (it was possible to enter the relative path, but no icon was shown in design time). Unfortunately, there are some users (like you) who used this approach. It is much preferred to load the icons as resources (not as files). Anyway, we shouldn't silently ignore the relative path when old forms are loaded. We should either start to support it or at least suggest the user to change it to absolute path or resource name. |
