Web apps don't let me use png icons.
Example:
But after selecting a .png:
Nothing is shown:
How can I fix this?
I only got it to work to set a custom icon by editing the .desktop file of the webapp. The file selection to a custom path didn't work for me on Zorin 18 live boot stick.
Open your filemanager, go to
~/.local/share/applications
(press ctrl+h to show the hidden files)
and there you find the .desktop files of the webapps (I'm not sure about webapps of flatpak browsers, but for brave browser they are saved there)
Open the .desktop file of the app you want to edit and then change the path at line "Icon" (you can simply copy the file of the icon and paste it there) and save the file.
E.g: I changed the icon for the webapp gmx which was a blue gmx icon before:
At line
Icon=
I replaced "webapp-manager" with the path to the downloaded icon file
We should report this problem/bug to the Zorin developers.
It could be that simply renaming isn't enough. Did you take a Look at the File Properties? For Icons would be a .svg File the best to choose.

Icons in svg format can be selected with the file chooser, .png and .jpg don't work. Thank you, Ponce-De-Leon!
