Custom File Association Icon Not Loading

See original GitHub issue

Hey love the new update to the plugin! It is great thanks a ton for making things customizable.

I am trying to update the python file icon using the new Custom File Associations but it doesn’t seem to be working for me.

I am using PyCharm 2020.1, and I am entering in all the fields in the settings like how ou say they should be, but it is never overwriting the icon in my IDE.

I am inputting the setting shown in the image below.

I am wondering if it’s somehow being overrided by some other setting, or is there a specific format the icon file needs to be like?

I noticed some weird behavior when edits the boxes in the fields too. A lot of the times the icon file path, would randomly replace the pattern I enter, so I am curious to whether that could be a part of the problem.

Let me know if you’ll need any other information for me. Thanks for the help.

No no you didn’t write the right regexp haha. It should be .*\.(xml)$

The one you wrote for Python was right though, I need to investigate that, but xml should be fine.
