Unable to save icon: "The file doesn't exist"

[gingerbeardman]

video: https://transfer.sh/9gdwx/video.mov (available for 14 days)

I have had this on Sierra and also have it on High Sierra GM.

Using latest version 1.1

I cannot save an icon at all.

I cannot save the icon to anywhere in my home folder.

However, if I try to save it to the root of my drive it appears to have saved. But no file is actually there if you check, so trying to save any modifications gets the same error.

Hey!

I tried to reproduce the problem on two different machines, one running 10.12.6, with the other at 10.13.1 Beta. Both correctly save the icon file even if I only specify a 64x64 image.

Could you please:

• Send me the image file you're trying to use
• Try running the current master from Xcode and send me any output Xcode spits out while running the app

thx, felix

I get this using File > New > Save (blank icon)

And also File > New > Paste image > Save (any icon)

Running the app directly from Xcode...

this is the main error:

objc[1067]: Class FIFinderSyncExtensionHost is implemented in both /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/FinderKit.framework/Versions/A/FinderKit (0x7fffb29c8a70) and /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/FileProvider.framework/OverrideBundles/FinderSyncCollaborationFileProviderOverride.bundle/Contents/MacOS/FinderSyncCollaborationFileProviderOverride (0x1062f0cd8). One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined.

Have cleaned up (reduced) my prior comment

[gingerbeardman]

Any thoughts?

[lemonmojo]

No, unfortunately not. I tried to reproduce this on 3 different Macs but none of them showed this behavior. If you have another Mac available, please try to reproduce it there. If you don't have another Mac, please try to create a new user account instead and try to reproduce it with that account.

[gingerbeardman]

I can reproduce on a Guest account.

I'll try to get locate another Mac to try it on.

What do you make of the errors?

[lemonmojo]

So I just pushed a commit with improved error handling. Could you please pull the changes and rebuild and then let me know what happens on your side?

Saving blank icon:

Still trying to source another Mac

[lemonmojo]

Well, a blank icon can't be saved because iconutil doesn't allow that. Why would you do that anyway?! Please fill all the image fields with matching icons in their respective sizes and try again.

[gingerbeardman]

Just to confirm that adding images allows me to save the icon.

However there's another issue: https://github.com/lemonmojo/IconComposer2x/issues/5
