Hi,
Firstly, apologies to Thor for the lack of response. It looks like there aren’t many mac users on here. I’m not a mac user but i have noticed some inconsistent behaviour on my Windows that could be the source. Could you please clarify, by *setting the icon* you mean calling root.iconbitmap(icon_path) inside the Python code and not setting the executable’s icon via the -i icon-path.ico option? I’ve knocked together a hello-world example <https://drive.google.com/file/d/15FF2XeOLkz0C6roqBfgndi3RoB0t67ED/view?usp=sharing> to play with. Could you try building and running it for me? I’m particularly interested to see if and where in the bundle it puts the ico file as was behaving strangely on my Windows.
