Description mazzuco 2005-08-17 16:07:07 UTC 
When you need to insert an icon (or image) into a swing component (like button),
it should be nice if the image browser could shows not only the image name but
also a small preview. It will be useful when you have to choose an icon for a
button and you have a big library of icons, or strange filenames.

An other annoying thing about the current icon selector is that it does not
remember the path of previous icon selections.

Which means that you typically have to click through a lot of
directories/packages before you find your icon repository again, each time you
assign an icon to a button.

The icon property editor has been redesigned for 6.0. It now gives the preview (for the actual package content) and
makes the navigation easier. I think we can mark this issue as fixed.
