I think the icon you want to display just needs to be in the current
resource chain...it would be unnecessary to add icons to Script Editor,
especially since scripts don't necessarily need to run in Script Editor
but if the icons you want to display are there they will go missing.
You can include 'cicn' resources in your script file but keep in mind
that 'cicn's come in many shapes and sizes and display dialog is only
equipped to deliver 32x32 color icons (Resorcerer has a useful command
to scale these for you).
Also since script editor does not leave open applets and droplets while
they are being edited your script's custom icons will be unlikely to
appear while running in Script Editor but should display as expected
when running as an application.
Oh, yeah, while I'm here, anyone know what TIA stands for?
Thanks in advance!
