When a Greenfoot scenario is exported as a .jar file, the icon in the top-left corner of the window is automatically a green foot. Is there any way to change that, to choose an icon image (if I right-click on the .jar file shortcut (if I made one) then press on "Properties", in the Properties window there is a button "Change Icon", this button only changes the icon for the appearance of the .jar file shortcut on the desktop (and has to be .ico) in a JFrame there is a method for the picture in the top-left corner, and it doesn't have to be .ico)?

Can't anybody around here answer this question (I guess not, but "The Greenfoot team" should be able to)?!

I was able to change it with my version of greenfoot by changing the image of the 'greenfoot.PNG' image file at the following location before creating the jar file: Greenfoot/lib/greenfoot/standalone/greenfoot.PNG The image should be replaced with an image of the same size (16x16).

Well that is possible, and I didn't think of it, but that way of doing it isn't in the Greenfoot program you're just, sort of cheating (but that doesn't mean it's a bad idea). What's wrong with doing an image with different dimensions?

There is no implementation within the greenfoot program to accomplish that particular task. So, changing that greenfoot uses when creating the jar file is about the only way to do it.

I could be wrong. May have to test it out (just had a gut feeling about this).

I know that, that's the problem there's no way to do it besides for going into the Greenfoot program directory. Or you could download the Greenfoot source code and edit it so that you can choose an image for the window icon (but I'm not about to do that).
