Any Way to Add Track Icon to Multiple Tracks at Once?

Subject kind of says it all, but I got a little lazy and got behind on adding track icons to my tracks, and now that I'm mixing and  have many tracks...
 
You understand.
 
 
Thanks!

    Nope. One at a time is what I've found.
     
    Would be cool if the icon space was larger.

    I would be happy if, say I associated an icon with Arturia's SEM plugin, every new time I used that plugin, the icon loaded into the various places automatically.  That seems easy peasy.

    I generally create Track Templates for instruments. Then the icon loads with the template.

    Correct about one at a time. I assume you've selected "Large Icons" instead of "Small Icons"?

    Yeah, thought so. But it never hurts to ask.

    Thanks!

    I think what be a nice feature is a drop down screen where the track name is. When you click on the drop down a category that states instrument with a list of instruments inside. When you click the instrument, the name goes into the track name and the icon appears in the icon window. Also if you want to type in a name for that track you can. Just a wishful suggestion.

    Have you tried the "Set Icon As Synth Default" option in the context menu for the instrument in the synth rack?

    I think the issue is he wants it to populate the Track View and the Console along with the Synth Rack.

    Probably so, I should not comment on color or images in SONAR. The subject does not interest me at all.
