@ H.G. (or Fergus):
When I tried to make a Play-Test Applet generated diagram for my SOHO Chess CV settings file, the game code produces the same symbolic character representation for White or Black Champions and Cannons (i.e. a 'C') when I look at the Applet's offered Custom set representation (meant for the Custom code box at the start of a preset's code boxes, when in Edit Mode).
Just to be sure it wouldn't work for me, I tried using the Custom specifications offered by the Applet in my preset's Custom code box (without saving it as the latest version), used Custom Group and Complete Custom Set in the preset itself, and got images of Champion figurines in place of the Cannons in the Edit Mode diagram, besides still having Champion figurines for the Champions in that diagram).
Thought I'd let you know, even though I can later try to make such an Applet generated preset without using a Custom Set, as H.G. described for me how to possibly do it, earlier. Here is unaltered non-rules enforcing SOHO Chess settings file, if that will shed any further light:
