Hi,

I remember from way back when ...., that TYPO3 features the possibility to
generate the state as an overlay on icons like hidden, timed etc. For some
reason it is stuck in my head that this was not used, but that all icons are
made by hand. Or that they where generated one time and included in the TYPO3
source.

I just saw it had something to do with GDlib with gif-support: "Until version
3.6.0 TYPO3 has automatically calculated new versions of database icons when
needed by the system. Thus you needed to supply only one icon - all variations
would be automatically generated and stored in typo3temp/. However this auto
generation depended on GDlib with gif-support and that has been a well known
problem for many years since not everyone has access to these features."

Does anyone know what the deal with this is now? There is no GIF patent anymore
if I am correct. Could this feature be enabled by default again?

gRTz
