post). ]
Hi devs,
I know, the following might not be a very pressing one, but it is a long-st=
anding issue on MacPorts [1]
Many KDE applications are not showing their application icon correctly. For=
visual people it can be a show-stopper, which is why I want to bring it up=
on KDE-DEVEL.
Here in my MacPorts installation I have in KDE 4.12.2 in total 55 KDE appli=
cations listed in /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/.
ONLY 11 of these 55 actually show a proper application icon. (I could post =
a screenshot somewhere, in case of need.)
Well, the apps which are able to supply an application icon are:
dolphin.app
kapptemplate.app
kfind.app
khelpcenter.app
kmymoney.app
kompare.app
kuiviewer.app
kwrite.app
lokalize.app
okteta.app
umbrello.app
Of the remaining 55 there are certainly some which belong to applications w=
hich are only launchers for something or helper apps, but some are certainl=
y normal applications which should be supplying an icon. I consider the fol=
lowing as such:
cervisia.app
kate.app
kdenlive.app
kdevelop.app
konqueror.app
An example:
-----------------
KMyMoney obviously does something differently compared to KDevelop, since t=
he latter is on MacOSX/MacPorts NOT ABLE to deliver the application icon to=
OSX=92 finder and dock.
If one has added KDevelop to OSX=92 dock, one can actually see only a gener=
ic Xcode-application-icon for KDevelop as long as it is not started.
Once you start up KDevelop you=92ll see that the icon immediately switches =
to the correct one.
As soon as KDevelop is closed the icon reverts back to the generic one.
However, KMyMoney does NOT do such a dance!
Any ideas what could be the reason?
Greets,
Marko
