Automator allows to save a workflow as an application bundle. It uses an Automator specific icon for doing this. I want to change this icon (using different icons for different workflows). I can do this by going into the application bundle and change the icon with Icon Composer. The disadvantage of this solution is that if I open the application bundle in Automator and save it, it uses the default icon again. Is there a way to change the icon for good? | ||||

From Here Go to any file, folder, or app on your mac and single click on it. Single click on the icon at the top of the info screen and press Apple-c to copy it. Go to your Single click on the icon. When the info screen comes up single click on the icon on the top left. Apple-v to paste. Your app has a new icon. Note that when you save your automator app again, the old icon will come back and you'll have to do the process again. If you'd like to see a few of my automator apps, they're not quite ready for public consumption yet, but they're up, each with their on icon. You'll find them at http://www.booksthatdontgobad.com/DownloadXtras I don't use any icon builders, but have a few freeware utilities that are nice. I found them either at macupdate.com of apple's software site. Cocoathumbx-Converts a file's content to an icon. Works with images and pdfs Thumbscrew-Creates a nice little slanted icon of images dropped on it. Many things can be modified in prefs. | |||||||
