    Default Mac OS application icon problem

    So I am a PC user, and finishing up the PC version of an application I tinkered with VMWare and have a Mac OS Snow Leopard 10.6.2 going and Qt 4.6.2 in there.... All my code ports just fine. But the dang Dock icon is a lame default one! I went to the Qt icon page and am just worn out with such a small problem... I am using a .icns image and was using the RC_FILE = appIcon.rc method in the .PRO file. then I tried just ICON = iconName.icns and that is a bust as well... anyone have any ideas? I have the icon in the tray icon just fine, but it just seems ridiculous to not have the dock icon......

    Default Re: Mac OS application icon problem

    Have a look on Info.plist file from http://gottcode.org/focuswriter/ is a text editor on mac osx an is build on QT ...

    on pro file....
    Qt Code:
    1. macx {
    2. ICON = resources/mac/focuswriter.icns
    3. }
    4.  
    5. macx {
    6. QMAKE_INFO_PLIST = resources/mac/Info.plist
    7. CONFIG += x86_64
    8. # Comment the above line and uncomment the following lines to compile Universal for 10.4+
    9. # QMAKE_MAC_SDK = /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk
    10. # CONFIG += x86 ppc
    11. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    other point of interest mac_deploy.sh
    load source:
    git://github.com/gottcode/focuswriter.git

    or http://gottcode.org/focuswriter/

    I search to combine fullscreen controll on Mac osx Lions to having the Icon like attachment...iconfullscreen.png

    I not found this implementation Only Google chrome having this fix & original mac apps...
