Re: [Freeglut-developer] GLUT_ICON not working on top left window

[Diederick C. N. <dc...@gm...>]

Hi Isaac,

I used that same program and found the following:
There is an ICON resource which contains the actual icon file under
"1" and then there is a GROUP_ICON resource, which contains
"GLUT_ICON", although its properties i don't understand..

RESOURCES
  ICON
    1
  GROUP_ICON
    GLUT_ICON

Best,
Dee
