How to set icons for viewport

[Zxlan]

I'm trying to set icons for viewport like this:

import dearpygui.dearpygui as dpg
dpg.create_context()
vp = dpg.create_viewport(width=400, height=200)

dpg.setup_dearpygui(viewport=vp)

dpg.set_viewport_small_icon("C:/Project/pythonProject/Demo3/index.ico")
dpg.set_viewport_large_icon("C:/Project/pythonProject/Demo3/index.ico")

with dpg.window(label="", width=300, height=100) as ne_id:
pass
dpg.show_viewport(viewport=vp)
dpg.start_dearpygui()
dpg.destroy_context()

Version of Dear PyGui: 1.5.1
Operating System: Windows 10 x64
but this doesn't work. any ideas or examples? thanks!

I figure this out.It doesn't work because my ico picture is bad.

What format *.ico file should be?
Everything is displayed in the header, but the taskbar does not change. Tried different formats. Need specific specification or problem confirmation please. Python 3.11 x64

`import dearpygui.dearpygui as dpg

dpg.create_context()

with dpg.window(tag="Primary Window"):
dpg.add_text("Hello, world")
dpg.add_button(label="Save")
dpg.add_input_text(label="string", default_value="Quick brown fox")
dpg.add_slider_float(label="float", default_value=0.273, max_value=1)

with dpg.window(tag="Sec Window"):
dpg.add_text("Hello, world")
dpg.add_button(label="Save")
dpg.add_input_text(label="string", default_value="Quick brown fox")
dpg.add_slider_float(label="float", default_value=0.273, max_value=1)

dpg.create_viewport(title='Custom Title', width=600, height=200, small_icon='a.ico', large_icon='c:\PT11\LABS\a.ico')
dpg.setup_dearpygui()
dpg.show_viewport()
dpg.set_primary_window("Primary Window", True)
dpg.start_dearpygui()
dpg.destroy_context()`

Did you figure this out? I am having a similar issue. Any guidance is appreciated.

Taskbar icon works as expected after using pyinstaller to compile into .exe. I think the taskbar icon depends on the python interpreter when running from source, and uses the default icon.
