Parameters

icon Icon: The icon that may contain multiple images.

pixelFormat PixelFormat: The required pixel format to retrieve
forceUncompressedResult Boolean: to force returning an uncompressed icon; to allow PNG compression, which is supported by Windows Vista and above.

Return Value

Icon
An Icon instance, which contains only a single image. If no icon was found with the specified size and format the nearest icon (size match have preference over pixelFormat) is returned.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type Icon. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

On some platforms it may happen that a smaller icon is returned than requested size if the requested icon size is not supported. If icon contains only unsupported icon sizes, then is returned.

To force a result exactly with the specified size, use the Resize method instead.
