Hi,

I am developing an editor that supports more than 1 file extension (like Web Browser which supports htm, html etc..) and I am using DLTK for this.
In my case, I need to show different icons in Project/Package/Script explorer for the files based on their icon. I tried using "org.eclipse.ui.decorators" for doing this. I tried by giving "REPLACE" as the light weight decorator's location. It is replacing the icon but the problem marker (red cross mark over the icon) displayed in case the file has any error disappears.
What I need to do is to change on the icon of the file displayed in the explorer but retain other decorators.

I am not sure whether this is the right forum to post this doubt. I have already posted in DLTK forums ( http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=199906& amp;start=0&S=4818b6d8f551d23596891dcc246bca8c) but since there wasnt any reply, I thought of trying my luck here also.

Thanks in advance,
Daisy.

You might get some response by asking on the Platform forum. Find it on
the Forums home page, under "Eclipse Projects."
