Branding / webstart.loadinglogo / Windows Desktop Icon

The image ‘webstart.loadinglogo’ in ‘Branding Settings’ will be displayed in the loading/verify form and as desktop icon.
I defined different formats, but the desktop icon on windows 7 looks very bad.
Did anyone know with type of graphic (png, gif, jpg) in wich size I have to define that both, the desktop icon as well as the logo in the loading form are shown in a propper way.

Hi there,

i’ve the same problem at the moment.
Can anyone give an advice with format and size should be set?

Currently i’m using 1024x1024px png image and the desktop icon is very ugly on Windows 8.1

Thanks!

There is not much you can do about it. Java on Windows does downscale it automatically.
It’s long standing issue. I believe…

Looke here: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/te … yntax.html

icon element: Contains an HTTP URL to an image file in either GIF, JPEG, ICO, or PNG format. The icons are used to represents the application

during launch when Java Web Start presents the application to the user;
in the Java Application Cache Viewer;
in desktop shortcuts.
A 64x64 icon is shown during download; in the Java Application Cache Viewer and in desktop shortcuts a 32x32 icon is used. Java Web Start automatically resizes an icon to the appropriate size.

Try disabling anti-aliasing on your graphics card. I read somewhere that certain graphics processors (e.g. Radeon and GeoForce) render fuzzy/blurry images when running on Java and anti-aliasing is enabled.
