reading through the library, it appears that you are correct - you cannot add to the default family. changing the family using setCurrentIconFamily("custom") does cause the picker to show those icons. if i want to select one for assignment to a widget, is that the only way to do it? entering custom/test does not seem to work. instead i have to set the family and then choose the icon
