Property Value

Type: System.Drawing.Icon
An Icon. There is no default value.

Remarks

You can provide an icon file in your project either as content or as an embedded resource. To do this in Visual Studio, in the Solution Explorer, set the Build Action property of the icon file to either Content or Embedded Resource.

The recommended value for both the height and width of the icon is 16 pixels.

Examples

The following code example creates a notification and initializes a new instance of the Icon class using a data stream from an assembly resource. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the Notification class.

 'Provide an icon for the notification to appear in the title bar when dismissed.
 'Assumes an icon file is compiled with the assembly as an embedded resource.
 Dim asm As [Assembly] = [Assembly].GetExecutingAssembly()
Notification1.Icon = New Icon(asm.GetManifestResourceStream("notify.ico"), 16, 16)

 // Provide an icon for the notification to appear in the title bar when dismissed.
 // Assumes an icon file is compiled with the assembly as an embedded resource.
Assembly asm = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
notification1.Icon = new Icon(asm.GetManifestResourceStream("notify.ico"),16,16);
