I'm talking about the "Add folder to library" function in OD+

I accidentally did it once. How did I do it? I'd love to link some folders into it as I have thousands of icons.

I'm confused as usual.

You simply click on "add folder" and a window opens so you can browse to the folder of your choice.

 

It don't do that. It lets you browse happily, then you have to have an icon to click on, and then all it does is use the icon and the folder isn't there. (except where it remembers the folder where you got the icon, you still have to browse again if you want to do another shortcut)

Well, I do not understand why it will not let you add the folder. Yes, the folder opens to let you select the icon. The next time you want to change an icon the folder you just added should appear in the list to the left. Yours is not doing this?

I want that icon available for all of my shortcuts. I have one folder with 300mb of icons. I'm not going to move it to the executable folder of the program. The problems I have been having lately I need just one less thing to mess with. I saw that add folder feature and thought it would be great. the older OD Plus automatically read C:\users\username\documents\stardock to find things. This new version does not, all it reads is the executables folders.

Liz, I am at a loss as to why this is not working for you. As you can see from my screenie, I browsed to "My Documents,downloads, Vista Icons choose the icon of my choice and once I closed out, the next time I open the configuration the folder I chose and all subfolders are included for my choosing. My icon folder is just a bit smaller than yours at 253 MBs. Perhaps I am still not understanding what you wish to accomplish as your screenie seems to show custom folders.
