Add icons to the page index panel

 

Hello everybody.

Just a little tip on how to have icons in the page index view, even if the widget does not have that feature : you can always put an unicode character in the page title, like that :

Here's the result : <https://omacronides.com/pics/softs/zim/using-icons.png>

cons :
    • title can't start with the 'unicode icon'.
    • Unicode icon is part of the file name.
pros :
    • No need for evolution or plugin that overrides the page index panel
    • It's based on the unicode standard, available everywhere

You can also create a custom tool to open a software to pick an unicode character, gnome-characters for example : <https://omacronides.com/pics/softs/zim/tool-gnome-characters.png>.

Regards, and as always, thanks Jaap for the great work.
