Icons and labels from code that was installed via Thinkstore should be modifyable

Hi Kasper,

Base projects are modifiable just are work projects. What you can do is go into the downloaded Thinkstore solution base project, my guess it's called something like TRACE_FIELDS, and add a new icon in that project. Then you can edit the exact location where the icon gets added to use you desired icon.

Hope that helps! 

What happens when a project from the Thinkstore gets a new version and you want to upgrade your implementation of it?

You can either download that version as a new version for that project, or place it in a separate project. But there indeed will be a difference between those versions. It will not overwrite your edited project version.

I do think it is unlikely that the Trace field solution will see any new version in the near future.

Hi Kasper,

I have discussed with my colleague and we recommend creating Dynamic model procedures in your Work project to overwrite the icons and labels coming from the base project. 

You can simply add Update statements for your work project for the objects that come out of the base project. Example:

-- Updates the form next group icon for all columns named insert_user
update c
set c.form_next_grp_icon_id = i.icon_id
from col c
join icon i
  on i.project_id = c.project_id 
 and i.project_vrs_id = c.project_vrs_id 
 and i.icon = '<my icon name>' -- Name here the icon, for example "icon.svg"
where c.project_id = @project_id 
  and c.project_vrs_id = @project_vrs_id 
  and c.col_id = 'insert_user' -- Only for columns named "insert user"

Nice! That looks like  a workable solution :)
