[kepler-users] Icon for actor

[Jianwu Wang]

Hi Guillaume,

    Firstly, the public repository of Kepler has changed from SVS to 
SVN: https://code.kepler-project.org/code/kepler/trunk/. The 
'VizDesign-AddingIcons_kma.doc' is a little out of date. Sorry about it.

    Secondly, if you just want to use your actor locally. The two files, 
namely uiSVGIconMappingsByClass.properties and 
uiSVGIconMappingsByLSID.properties, mean your local files. They can be 
found at $KEPLER\configs\ptolemy\configs\kepler\ (Linux or Mac machine) 
or %KEPLER%\configs\ptolemy\configs\kepler\  (Windows machine). You need 
to change the files at the public repository only if you want your 
changes effect all the Kepler users.

   I hope it is useful.

Best wishes

Sincerely yours

Jianwu Wang
