+Use Desktop_Apps/Create Action tool. Save actions under ~/.dt/appmanager
-The icons must be in XPM or XBM format and they need to be in three sizes: 48x48, 32x32 and 16x16. Create three separate icons as each will be "consumed" when you use them in Create Action. I used The Gimp to create the three icons I needed. Examples are under ${pkgs.cdesktopenv}/opt/dt/appconfig/icons/C
+Icons should be in XPM or XBM format. Use the following script to convert from png icons
+{{file|~/.dt/convert.sh|bash|<nowiki>
+#!/usr/bin/env nix-shell
+#!nix-shell -i bash -p imagemagick
+file=`basename ${1%.*}`
+convert $1 -resize 48x48 ~/.dt/icons/$file.l.pm
+convert $1 -resize 32x32 ~/.dt/icons/$file.m.pm
+convert $1 -resize 24x24 ~/.dt/icons/$file.s.pm
