[Bug 34958] New: Support for the menu bar app name and adding a way to change it
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34958 Bug #: 34958 Summary: Support for the menu bar app name and adding a way to change it Product: Wine Version: 1.7.6 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Mac OS X Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: trivial Priority: P2 Component: winemac.drv AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: winebugs140(a)gmail.com Classification: Unclassified So that instead of 'Wine' near the black apple icon will show up the executable name. Also an option to change this name into a custom text string would be useful if we don't like the default executable name (for example, GOG.com and Steam use Wine to run some of their games on Macs, this feature might of use to them). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

The Mac frameworks use the "bundle name" for that title and ignore the title set programmatically or, for a more conventional Mac app, in the MainMenu.nib. In Wine, the bundle name comes from the loader/wine_info.plist.in file in the sources. So, you can patch it for a custom build of Wine, but you can't change it dynamically based on what executable Wine is running. Since it can't be dynamic, the official sources must use an appropriate generic name. "Wine" is the obvious choice. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

It would be then much easier to change it without compiling... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

The frameworks ignore the menu title which is set in the NIB and use the bundle name. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I'm not saying this should be high priority, but such an option would be nice. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

It's not under program (i.e. Wine's) control at runtime. By Apple's design, it's taken from a hard-coded feature of the built program. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
