ehm i dont fully understand the post but i will try to answer :). I have the same problem on a map im working on. My mate has made icons but no disables, -.-. What you need to do is make a disabled icon for your icon and add the right path to it. This is path for normal: ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTN"Name".blp and for disabled: ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtonsDisabled\DISBTN"Name".blp

Heres is a good guide: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/f281/complete-icon-tutorial-all-about-icons-37832/

Just upload an icon with the same name as your icon but: DISBTN instead of BTN.
That should be enough, but if that doesn't work, change it's path to ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtonsDisabled
Enjoy.

But if i do that, my map's size is quite large..
Do you know what name of path on mpq (War3.mpq/War3x.mpq) for that green icon?
Thanks for the replies before

I don't think that green blob is actually an icon. I think it's just a display error. As far as I am aware it can't be changed.
Icons are incredibly small anyways, they increase the size of your map by 10k at the most.

That "green error", if u want to change it (i understood thatway), that cant be changed. Just make a DISBTN file of the icon u want and u have a proper icon, without that green error

I'm not sure if I'm understanding correctly, but do you mean you want it to be disabled all the time? Even when it should display a normal undisabled icon?

If so, you can use some program (Warcraft 3 Image Renamer is easy to use) to create disabled icon of it. Then save it as a .blp. Now import it into your map and change its path to:

ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\<ICON>.blp

That way, your "enabled" icon is a disabled icon.

You could also import the same icon again and make it the disabled so you don't get a green box if you click Menu or something.

There's no way to change the path of the green icon, since its not even an icon, just create a DISBTN for each BTN you have
