Creating Icon for Objects

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have made some custom objects for our office library. When I put them in the library the icon is the default little chair. is there a quick way of changing this to a custom icon? See attached screen shot.

Thanks in advance

Easy enough. Open the 3D View and Render as you want it to appear in the preview window. Open the Preview Picture tab and copy/paste the image.
You may have to experiment with the size of render window to get a clear image.

Hope that helps

If you mean by "custom icon" a preview picture then see this thread.
