Cannot create DMG with hidden files specified in JSON #113

Closed DominikPalo closed 8 years ago

DominikPalo commented 8 years ago

I try to use a workaround to move hidden files in DMG outside the initial window, but after I add these files to my JSON config, creating of installer fails on step [ 5/20] Looking for files... with error: Error: ".Trashes" not found at: ...

I have hidden files specified in JSON as:

    { "x": 700, "y": 500, "type": "file", "path": ".background" },
    { "x": 700, "y": 500, "type": "file", "path": ".DS_Store" },
    { "x": 700, "y": 500, "type": "file", "path": ".Trashes" },
    { "x": 700, "y": 500, "type": "file", "path": ".VolumeIcon.icns" }

Use "type": "position" instead of "type": "file"
