How do I do it?
Specifically I'd like to remove the playlist icon. I can't find that icon in any .png.
.. <folderlist

if you want to change icons you can use custom icons file
And change in the icon png file.

So I tried putting this into <folderlist ..
<icon sysicon="play_button" width="32" height="32" />
(play_button just to try)
The Icon tried in this example however is not showing up. Have I done it the right way or am I missing something here?
(I have also tried with a couple of different positions and increased the size)

Did you add a new custom icon image file?
And link to it in the xml?

No I didn't try a custom .png, but does it matter if it's custom or sys if I am only testing?
How to link it is what I am trying to figure out

You need a custom png to change icons
But if you tried with default icons and not showing up, it does look like you are trying to make a custom browser perhaps? if so see here: https://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/Custom%20Browser.html

Look here https://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/Custom%20Browser.html
Check if you did the code correctly.
Should show play icon in your test if thats what you set, else there is an error in your xml likely

nope I tried removing the background aswell

What icon are you getting then? or nothing shows at all?
If nothing shows at all perhaps the X Y coordinates are outside of the "canvas"
Or have something overlaying / hiding it
height="[HEIGHT]-173"/>
For example. if you have not defined height, the height is less than zero .. aka not visible probably

Nothing shows. Okay just to make sure. Do I put x and y on the same line or on a new line under with tab if you understand what I mean?
Height is defined
Height is defined

ah, i guess this is your actual code? thought you were just truncating a large code down to showing the icon part.. .
If its actual code, you are trying to add an icon to <folderlist> and that is not a place to add icon.
Its just a section of the browser, the list area to show folders.
To change the actual icon on folder XXX you need to use custom icons as mentioned already.
And if you want to test <icon> you need to place it somewhere where icons can be used, for example in a <button> element .. https://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/Skin%20Button.html
The folder list itself (all the folders) are created programmatically by the software, and shown inside the <folderlist> element automatically..
Creating a custom browser is not so easy, so if all you want to do is changing icons, perhaps just look at custom icons instead.. thats plenty to change the icons :)
