[Q] Direct Dial shortcuts and contact photos

Search This thread
On my Z1 homescreen I have a couple of direct dial shortcuts and the icons are taken from the contact photo.
I have tried to set these up on my Z2 but I'm just getting default avatar icons.
Anyone know how to get contact photos associated with these shortcuts?
I must have known once but can't seem to work it out now...............ah, .the joys of old age.
(If I add a contact to the homescreen that brings the icon with it but then when you press the desktop icon you get contact details displayed, ie its not a one-touch to dial someone)
