Hello Everyone,
I am a newcomer to Revolution and the list. I am making small drill
standalones for my computer lab. I have looked and searched for
instructions on how to make the standalone app display a custom
made icon, but can't seem to find it. I have created the icon files
in PhotoShop using IconBuilder.
Is there a website anyone would recomend that addresses this or
could someone please help me with this.
Karen,
Be sure to visit Chipp Walter's tutorial on standalone building at
http://www.altuit.com/webs/altuit2/RunRev/Tutorials.htm . It contains
a good section on creating application icons.
Several people her, including me use a PhotoShop plugin called
IconBuilder, which gives excellent results. You should also be aware
that on OS X there is a little quirk with Rev standalone app icons,
in which the icon doesn't appear immediately, even when the icon has
been properly placed into the app bundle Resources folder. What I
always do is launch the new standalone--you'll notice that the proper
icon does appear in the dock, even though it's not yet visible in the
Finder. Then quit the standalone, click its icon in the Finder and
open the Get Info window. Then click on the icon in the info window
and press the delete key. The new icon will appear.
