Configuring App Icons
An App Icon represents your application and appears on the home screen on your device. It is a visual entry to start your application. Hence, you should create several icons for all screen sizes to ensure that your icons will display properly across the variety of devices and screen resolutions.
To configure your application icons
Open the App Icon Editor. You can open this editor either from the context menu or from the Outline Editor.
From the context menu: 1. Select a file in your Mobile Project within the Package Explorer and do a right click.
2. Select the option Configure App Icons.
From the Outline Editor: 2. Select the Open App Icon Editor action from the top right toolbar of the editor.
The App Icon Editor shows placeholders for your application icons, sorted by platform, and thus gives a visual overview about your application icons. It also names the size required for each individual icon.
To import an App Icon, you can either drag and drop a single icon into the dedicated placeholder or you can import a single high-resolution icon. After importing an icon, you need to save the editor. Your icons will then be copied into your Mobile Project and renamed accordingly. You will find your application icons within the directory <project>/gen/.assets/icons sorted by platform. When using a source code management system, make sure to commit this directory.
