VABattery: suggested improvement

(Doh...lesson 1...don't preview a posting.)

I have VABattery installed and working beautifully.

When in the RO desktop it installs onto the iconbar as a vertical large black "I" to it's right. If I adjust click on this it changes to a horizontal battery with the % charged shown above it.

To me this is much more useful than the initial icon and I would like it to load automatically each time I run VABattery. At the moment it has to be changed manually.

Any possibility of the user being able to define which icon they would like to use? Maybe as an option in the power status window that appears when the iconbar icon is clicked on? Where the battery/Acorn icon is perhaps? Click on it and it changes to the iconbar display icon?

Just a thought

Cheers

Select the icon you want it to use as default, click SELECT on it to open the main Window and click on the OK button. Now everytime VABattery loads it will show the battery style you want on the iconbar
