      Hi

      Probably like a lot of you I have a lot of versions of sketchup pro on my computer where itโ€™s individual serial/licence details means they all still work

      A few days ago I came across an old post where something (using a Mac I think) has changed the colour of each of his desktop sketchup icons so he could easily tell the difference

      Iโ€™d love to do this colour coding myself but for the life of me canโ€™t find this post again

      Can anyone help

      Thanks

        Hi - not exactly the answer to your question or not sure if I have translated your question correctly ๐Ÿ˜‰ but it is quite easy to edit icons in any image editor.
        The example in the screenshot below shows icons which are very important for me - so I changed these backgrounds to a "poisonous" green which I do for all icons I want to recognize quickly...

          Not quite what I was looking for

          The sketchup icon is that red cube - this poster had managed to change the colour of the icon different colours so sketchup 19 had a blue desktop icon, 18 a purple icon and so on and so forth

          Thank you for taking the time with your suggestion though

            ๐Ÿ˜„ finally got it ๐Ÿ˜‰ - so for ecample IcoFX (the last free version) does a pretty good job for all types and sizes of icons.https://www.techsupportalert.com/best-free-icon-editor-and-replacer.htm
