@michi7801 Some ideas?

michi7801 commented 3 years ago

First of all, try to restart your computer. MacOS sometimes has problems to obtain the app icon shortly after installing the app. This does not happen to often, but it is worth the try.

If this does not help:

Did you build the app yourself or did you use the prebuild dmg? Placing the app icon into the right place is the job of the electron-builder. It should work fine as long as the image is at the right place.

If you are using the prebuild, try to install it again. The icon is definitely existing in the prebuild. Maybe the process of copying the .app went wrong? If not, check if the app image is in the right place and rebuild the app yourself.

I am not aware that the current version of the MacOS installer has any flaws, but I look into it if the problems occurs again...

Ok, I just re-downloaded the current release myself and checked if the icon is present. You can try to also re-download it, otherwise I have no clue why this could be. I also checked the image with a VM, which is not registered with my AppleID, and it works just fine. You can try to look if the app icon is present in the .app file.

Just go to this path: /Applications/SchildiChat.app/Contents/Resources and look if the file named SchildiChat.icns is present.

If this is the case, it has nothing to do with the SchildiChat installation. Something else must be going on with your machine.... It this is not the case, your installation is faulty or the dmg file is faulty...

Reproducible on Mojave.

Currently using this as a remedy.

@Kloenk Do you think this might be fixed with your recent changes?

kloenk commented 2 years ago

Im not sure, could be. Don't have easy access to an pre 11 macOS right now.

su-ex commented 2 years ago

Did the latest version fix this? @austinhuang0131 @savegame

austinhuang0131 commented 2 years ago

@su-ex Yes but the icon looks kinda small (compared to others)

I build the icon with the guidelines of apple, so this is the size that is expected. See: https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/macos/icons-and-images/app-icon/

Will close this. If it reappears just reopen it.
