Hello,

I knew that you also set ShortcutIconVisible as true. Otherwise, you would not also see the image at design.

As I said before, the issue is located in your relative path.
In your code, you used:

Image="C:\Users\MartinMuenzel\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\IntersoftWebSite3\Images\webpad-32.gif"

Please look carefully in the path and prefix. Even though it is correct physical path, but the prefix is wrong. We use "/" instead of "\"

If you open the reference sample I said before (WebDesktop sample >> WebDesktopManager >> DesktopWithShortcuts.aspx), You can see that we are using:

Image="../Images/welcome-32.gif"

Please do not define the physical path. You will need to use the relative path based on the project by using "~" or "." (depends on your level of folder).

Regards,
Handy

The relative path is correct and the visibility is already true.In the "preview" (i don't know how to call it) the image is shown, but not in the browser...

After adding the WebDesktopShortcut objects in the ShortcutIcons collection, we need to enable ShortcutIconsVisible property in order to have the shortcut icon visible in the browser.

Simply set the the value of ShortcutIconcVisible property to true as shown in the snippet code below.

<ISWebDesktop:WebDesktopManager ID="WebDesktopManager1" runat="server"
    ShortcutIconsVisible="True" ...>
    ...
</ISWebDesktop:WebDesktopManager>

Hope this helps.

Please refer into our WebDesktop sample >> WebDesktopManager >> DesktopWithShortcuts.aspx.
It seems your images relative path is incorrect.
