I saw that some intention in Idea has Icons.

How can I add that to my own intention? I didnt found any method where I can reference the icon. [Thats my intention](https://github.com/shopwareLabs/shopware6-phpstorm-plugin/blob/main/src/main/kotlin/de/shyim/shopware6/intentions/ExtendTwigBlockIntention.kt)

Thanks!

Try to implement the `com.intellij.openapi.util.Iconable` Interface

Yes, `Iconable` is a correct way to provide icons. For example, take a look at the [BaseRefactoringIntentionAction](https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/blob/7bf4fae01eac70a195fc099f85c2296a0b05d0ea/platform/lang-impl/src/com/intellij/refactoring/BaseRefactoringIntentionAction.java#L12) from the IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition sources as an example, which provides a lightbulb icon.
