Hello Everyone, i am creating a customized UI for my istance of node red and looking up at the Editor themes documentation portion :
```auto
page: {
title: "Node-RED",
favicon: "/absolute/path/to/theme/icon",
css: "/absolute/path/to/custom/css/file",
scripts: ["/absolute/path/to/custom/script/file", "/another/script/file"]
},
header: {
title: "Node-RED",
image: "/absolute/path/to/header/image", // or null to remove image
url: "http://nodered.org" // optional url to make the header text/image a link to this url
},
deployButton: {
type:"simple",
label:"Save",
icon: "/absolute/path/to/deploy/button/image" // or null to remove image
},
```
in order to pass the favicon or the images it requires the absolute file path, is it possible to have it relative, if yes, how? i tried \_\_dirname but i couldn't do it. i tried with examples like .\..\ style and something like that but it failed. I am on Windows.
Thank you for the help, have a nice day

Probably i explained myhself pretty poorly, i'd like not to use the absolute path in order to reference the css, is there a way? If yes, where should i put the folder that comntains the icons,images, and the css file?

Hello @alevher !
Did you sort it out? I'm facing the same issue. I tried the absolute path like :`favicon: "C:\Users\jowagen\Downloads\favicon.ico"` and didn't work.

Hello !
I used this `favicon: __dirname + "\\style\\icons\\favicon.ico"`
dirname is the directory where the settings js file is, i have in the .nodered folder a subdirecotry style with everytihng in it
