Hi,

Currently plot notifications place a square with rounded edges as the default icon on notifications.
I'd like to know how to use both my default app icon or a custom icon as the icon for these notifications.
(we also push our own gcm messages and they use our icon in messages by default)

I saw this post, but the answer just isn't sufficient:

So question:

If i want custom icon.

1. where do i place it within my project?

2. could you describe the exact syntax i need to use in my plotconfig file to point to this icon?

So something like this?

{
  "publicToken": "xxxxx",
  "enableOnFirstRun": true,
  "notificationSmallIcon": "R.drawable.my_icon_name??"

}

Nevermind,

I found it already:
This is what your plotconfig could look like:
{
  "publicToken": "xxxx",
  "enableOnFirstRun": true,
  "notificationSmallIcon": "ic_notification",
  "notificationAccentColor": "#895083"
}
my icon is ic_notification.png and located in res/drawable in my android project
