<p dir="ltr">Yep I'm down for that, would look pretty nice if we can I think. Bit like what VS Code, pycharm etc do for different file types.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Would be still handy to see if it's line, point, etc so just need to consider that.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi List,<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">This might be on the hit list already. Is it possible to have different icons for different file types within the QGIS Browser? I know the standalone Browser is being discontinued but the panel will still be available in the core QGIS.
Different icons would be very useful.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the QGIS Browser (app and panel) file system based datasets are listed in alphabetical order and each file has either a small raster icon if it is an image format or a small polygon icon if it is not. For database layers they have a
small point, line or polygon icon.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In my second choice GIS (well known!) there is also a browser-like application but it shows the files and datasets with different icons depending on file and data type. You can see the icons in the screenshots on this page -
