I'm curious, how different is this to toralfs Icon Viewer Lite? Also isn't there a real common dialog for viewing icons like the one below?

That is script, this is closed function that you can use (see "module" above ?). I used it as a bases for this work. They function quite differently now.

That is system dialog, CmnDlg_ChooseIcon which is so basic that you may want replacement, like ChooseIconEx, for more control and better UI.

Yet you chose an attribution license for this script, don't you think that's a little bit selfish?

Actually I think your one is simpler as it has a less cluttered UI, which is always better. Thanks.

Ofcourse, this has nothing to do with toralfs work anymore. Almost every line is my work and entire structure is my own.
Fell free to compare scripts any time.

In v1.01 one bug is fixed and as a side-effect, folder scanning is a bit faster and icons look really good now (previously, many icons did look awful)

Thank you, I needed something like this.
I noticed your code contains labels, this means that the script can be included only after auto-execute section. Wouldn't it be a good idea to embed these in a function so that the script can be included anywhere in a script (I usually include everything at the beginning of my scripts  ) ?
I also thought maybe you could add SHAutocomplete functionality to the path field.
Other than that, I have been trying for a while to write a function that extracts an icon from a container when given the path of the container and the index of the icon (basically its position among other icons in the container). I somewhat managed to do that, using some code from SKAN's IconEx v1.0 but it doesn't work with named icon resources. I know ResHack does this, but I find it quite slow compared with a function, among other disadvantages.
Would you know how to do it? |

Its a good idea, however, it didn't cross my mind back then since I always include at the end.

I don't plan to further improve this function at this moment. However, anybody is free to do so. More important thing should be done first IMO to improve usability with folders containing large number of icons - always showing the icons from the visible screen section as priority and loading the rest of them in the background.
