Hi there,
As I know, Windows and Gnome both have a dialog which allows users to customize the icon of a shortcut file.
I wonder if wxPython also has one alike ? All I could find is just a ImageBrowser.
Thanks.

You can use the wx.ListCtrl with either LC_ICON or LC_SMALL_ICON style flag.

Not like that, I’d have taken ImageBrowser for it’s easier that ListCtrl.
What I really mean is that I wonder whether there is a widget just like which the Windows OS or Gnome has, you can right click on any shortcut and open the property dialog, then customize the icon to see what it is like.

When you right-click an shortcut on Windows, you do NOT edit the icon,
but the properties of the shortcut, such as what program the shortcut
opens. If you want to edit an icon, then you'll need something like
Paint.NET or the GIMP. If instead you are talking about creating a
right-click menu, wxPython has those. See the wxPython demo. wxPython
also allows you to create your own dialogs with wx.Dialog.

I would bet that on Windows at least that is implemented with the same
native control that wx.ListCtrl uses. But to answer your question, no,
there isn't a ready-made solution that will do everything for you.
You'll need to put together the components wxPython gives you to build
what you want.

May be I didn’t express my question accurately, I just need a icon-picking dialog like what Windows or Gnome has.

All right, I can not choose but use ImageBrowser.

I had to look at a shortcut to see what you wanted to do (I'm on
Windows XP). The dialog should be easy to build. You need a file
picker control to select the directory, and the Ultimate List Control
should give you the grid-like list of icons you want.

Try having a look at the Demo image browser and the help file for wxTopLevelWindow::SetIcon.
