Add JMP Version and product to icon options

I have to have multiple JMP versions installed at the same time, and from time to time I get confused which version I'm currently running. I can always check it from About menu or create an addin which will tell me the version + product, but I would rather use icons for that. 

Currently I have three different JMP versions in "active" use (even more versions installed...). I have pinned them to taskbar and changed the icons but

with the current icon selection I cannot choose to show the current version, differentiate between pro/non-pro or if the JMP is EA product. 

 

Current icon selection JMP16 Pro:

My current selections to help me make a difference between different versions:

  1. JMP15
  2. JMP16 Pro
  3. JMP17 EA

Great idea.

I too need to run several versions of JMP simultaneously. This would help prevent using the wrong version for some applications.

I agree with making this a built-in option, but FYI my current solution is to make a custom icon file (save a 32x32 pixel .png file and change extension to .ico) and then reference that file in the dialog box you showed.
