Part Category Button Textures

[Alshain]

Is there a way to access the icons for the part categories while Flight (as a Texture), or the PartCategorizer the only way?  I can access the Simple Icons, the ones that can be used for creating subcategories, but I can't figure out how to get to the main "Filter by Function" icons.

I'm working on a new UI for ActionGroupManager and I would really love it if I could use the same icons for consistency.

You can always get them from GameDatabase.Instance.databaseTexture (It's how I get all of the icons for FE including the ones you're looking for, although I recommend not using that particular approach for specific icons...)

@Crzyrndm Thanks, I took your code and added a debug line to it.

 

            GameDatabase.TextureInfo texInfo = null;
            //Texture2D selectedTex = null;
            var texDict = new Dictionary<string, GameDatabase.TextureInfo>();
            for (int i = GameDatabase.Instance.databaseTexture.Count - 1; i >= 0; --i)
            {
                texInfo = GameDatabase.Instance.databaseTexture[i];
                if (texInfo.texture != null && texInfo.texture.width == 32 && texInfo.texture.height == 32)
                {
                    Debug.Log("Found Texture:" + texInfo.name);
                }
            }

The result was that those textures never showed up in Flight.  Unfortunately I have to conclude they don't exist outside of the Editor.

So, I think I'm going to have to go back to text buttons.  I could use alternative textures but I feel like that would just be confusing to the user.

EDIT: Well since I had it already coded, I added boolean flag and a few conditionals.  Now the users can choose what they find confusing.
