Description Dan Evans 2008-11-26 12:33:17 UTC
When mounting our new 7.3 DMG file, you need to scroll down to view our installer icon.  This doesn't look good and is poor customer experience.  Yes, it's a little thing but it's noticeable.

no target without assignee

This depends on the view configuration of your finder.

Matt/Tom - can the order in large icon view be configured?

This looks like a reasonable and safe technique:

I'll attach a dmg file that can be used as the template.

Matt:  You'll need to...

1.  Make a copy of that file
2.  Convert that copy to a R/W DMG:  with "hdiutil convert -format UDRW"
3.  Mount it
4.  ditto the files onto it.
5.  rename it with "disktool -n"
6.  unmount
7.  Convert it back to a R/O DMG
8.  Profit!

Fixed in change 24156... Now we can do some real nice customization of the DMG package as well. 
Comment 6 Matt Wise 2008-11-29 17:37:47 UTC
The change works from command line -- but does not work when run through parabuild. Change 24158 reverts the change for now. 
Comment 7 Matt Wise 2008-12-01 11:47:22 UTC
Should be fixed in change 24170... Instead of renaming the volume, we create a
whole new one. The settings that Finder saves go into the .DS_Store file, so we
copy that (and other) files over to the new image and the settings look to be
preserved.
Comment 8 Matt Wise 2008-12-01 11:49:43 UTC
Perhaps this is something we should look into by the way -- customizing our package further to look a bit nicer:

This bug has been fixed in the 7.3.0 release version of SqueezeCenter!

Please download the new version from http://www.slimdevices.com/su_downloads.html if you haven't already.  

If you are still experiencing this problem, feel free to reopen the bug with your new comments and we'll have another look.
