I think that the limit is 256 states, might be wrong tho.
|
There certainly used to be, and possibly still is, a hard limit of 512 states for DM-created DMIs, IIRC due to a bug in the Windows control that DM uses for the icon state list causing heavy flickering with large numbers of entries. This may just be a consequence of that limit.

Zewaka, do you have a copy of the icon causing this issue? I'd like to run some tests and see if I can fix this.
In theory as long as there's room for the icon in memory, it should be feasible to display a screen's worth of them easily, but the problem might be that the way the icon editor's main page renders is inefficient. | |
Lummox JR resolved issue with message:
Icons with huge numbers of states didn't display correctly in the icon editor, which failed to display later states entirely and also had problems with the scrollbar. | |
