our Office Add-in shows a pixelated icon in the list of Add-ins.
We're using following declerations in our manifest file:
<IconUrl DefaultValue="logo-32x32.png" />
<HighResolutionIconUrl DefaultValue="logo-64x64.png"/>
According to the documentation of HighResolutionIconUrl element
and IconUrl element
these are the only attributes to set.
Is there a way to ensure the App Icon is displayed correctly?

i created a open source icon set what you can see here : https://fusion.li
as a designer, i can imagine users would love to drag out an icon from the website directly on the desktop or into a design programm and using it.
i wonder if have any parameter or way to make it easy to save an icon from website. each icon dragable to desktop to save an icon directly from web to file - as i can do it with images - or have a right click to "save file as".
Is there a way to force Internet Explorer and Edge to use a particular favicon for the address bar/tab icon?
In general I'm using a different design (with a wider margin) for "live tile" (or whatever Microsoft calls them)... and for some reason these browsers keep choosing one of those images (defined in browserconfig.xml or one of the Apple icons... not sure) to use in the address bar.
This is not what I want, because the one in the address bar/tab icon needs to have a smaller margin and transparent background.
Is there a safe and consistent method to say "use this icon for the address/tab bar icon", and "use this icon for the tile or whatever?"
EDIT: Another acceptable workaround for this would be if there was a way to specify that the images with a background/margin would ONLY be used for "tile" so that the others would be favicon(s) only? I don't fully understand what logic IE/Edge use to choose which icon to display.
The favicon package generated by RealFaviconGenerator behaves the way you want: In its tabs, Edge picks the classic "desktop" icon, while it uses the tile icons for sites added to home screen. More precisely, Edge is using the classic 32x32 PNG icon as the tab icon.
I advice you to first run the compatibility test with Edge on your machine to make sure it behaves as described above (I didn't have a Surface tablet or something like this to test it).

I have a problem with windows taskbar icon/logo size and background. my problem is all windows store app I saw, have smaller icon than normal windows programs. i want to know is there any way to have normal icon for winJS Apps, like other windows programs or microsoft Default Apps
and Is there any way to remove system accent color from background of our app? Without adding full-color image in manifest logo section
as you can see in below image there is huge difference between store Apps and microsoft or normal desktop Apps in the taskbar.
if there is no way, I hope microsoft will fix this because, even if we have a good icon this difference between store apps and other apps can effect on our app usage.
You can turn off the automatic padding as part of your app
Look at the "Target-based assets" section of this page: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/controls-and-patterns/tiles-and-notifications-app-assets#Target-based_assets
finally, I find the complete answer, also many thanks to Tobiah Zarlez.
for have similar Icon to Normal desktop app / and Microsoft apps, like (Mail, Photos, Xbox etc) see following image . . .
image link of what you should do to have Normal icon in windows 10 store app
in this process:
for taskbar icon go to "Square 30x30 Logo"
you should fill all 8 images section in there.
in visual studio open " Solution Explorer "
Just change name format of the .targetsize images like this . . .
Square30x30Logo.targetsize-256.png →→ Square30x30Logo.targetsize-256_altform-unplated.png
do it for all four image have ".targetsize" in "Square 30x30 Logo"
note: don't add "_altform-unplated" for ".scale" images like this one →
Square30x30Logo.scale-100.png
I want to embed a PDF in chrome such that that the document fills the available horizontal space of the plugin. (i.e. Minimal gray plugin background at the sides of the document). Is there a way to pass a parameter when I embed the PDF that can specify the zoom level I want the document to open at?
Couldn't find anything recent on this topic. I found this but it's a couple years old and Google changed their PDF viewer recently.
Now it is possible.
You can provide plugin options via url.
To set document zoom to fit window width you need:
http://example.com/sample.pdf#view=fith
where fith - stands for fit horizontally
I have the following control in a Windows Metro App:
string html = "<html><body>test content</body></head>";
myWebView.Opacity = 0.5;
myWebView.NavigateToString(html);
This works okay, but what I end up with is a blank white background with black text. What I actually want is for this to work with the current Metro style (so match the dark or light background depending on the setting). I've played with the Opacity setting, as above, but it seems to make no difference.
Is there a way to get the WebView control to mirror the current Metro style?
This is by design. WebView-Controls don't support any Opacity, cause they are kind of a special control which is rendered on top of everything.
From the MSDN docs:
WebView has the characteristic that other UI regions such as controls cannot be rendered on top of the WebView. This is because of how window regions are handled internally, particularly how input events are processed and how the screen draws. If you want to render HTML content and also place other UI elements on top of that HTML content, you should use WebViewBrush as the render area. The WebView still provides the HTML source information, and you reference that WebView through element name binding and the SourceName property. WebViewBrush does not have this overlay limitation.
