Hide common osx folders in DMG view #55

Closed pskowronek closed 6 years ago

A fix moves well-known osx hidden folders like (.fseventsd, .DS_Store, .Trashes) and .background folder out of view in DMG. Those hidden folders are being visible when user has turned on the visibility of hidden files in the system (via defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES) - most developers turns this on. On such system the opened DMG has those hidden items (and .brackground folder from macappbundle) visible so they may distract or distort the alignment of App + Application icons and background image). The solution is moving those folders down out of view.
