I work in OS X and tried to setup my dev environment such that my one-click app was in a DropBox folder so I would never have to worry about backups and, theoretically, would be able to switch at any time to work from my other macs. (I put my local montecello repository in the same folder.) Unfortunately, it didn't work. Clicking the app resulted in a 'can't find image' error. I didn't look into it further but assumed that either there was a non-relative path setting, or that the image was actually not in the package contents hidden by the app.
If the app packaging could be tweaked so this use-case worked it would be a nice, flexible (and free) model for working across different machines and having constant , effortless backup of the working environment. - Larry > Luc > > >
