Run Sys:Tools/Iconedit.

Go to Project menu / open and choose your default Jaz icon.

The selector at the top of the window should say New Image (if it says Old Image, change it to New).

Choose Images menu / Load / Image... and select the first image.

Now the Normal image will be shown.  Select the Selected box and repeat the loading.

Choose Extras menu / Minimise Sketchboard.

Choose Project menu / Save.

Done, reboot to take effect.

Hmm, you might be able to fix that with the same program, Iconedit.  Load the icon, select whichever colour is transparent (looks like the shadow the Jaz drive casts), then fill the whitish areas with it.  Alternatively you could load the original pictures into a paint package and do the same.  From there you could even flip them around so they face the same way as your other icons (of course they would look mirrored though) then save them again as icons from Iconedit.

You're welcome!

By the way, for a guy with limited Amiga knowledge, you sure know how to set up a nice looking Workbench using virtually no chip mem.  What's your secret?  Whatever hacks I use I could never keep that much free.

Ah.  :roll: Kids these days, they don't know how lucky they are.
In my day, we were glad for the price of a cup of tea. A cup of cold tea, without milk or sugar... or tea.  etc. etc.
