Hello, I'm currently working on an app that will have a different name (and UI) depending on an environment variable that is set by that app's custom installer that I also wrote. I'm trying to change the app name that is displayed in the menu bar (top left) programmatically. I've done some research and found that it's probably not possible to do so because it's fetched from the app's Info.plist The answer is probably already there but I'll ask the question: Is it possible to change the app's name in the menu bar without tampering with the Info.plist (as it will break the signature at runtime, and it can't be done at compile time) The use case here is that I'm shipping a single app with multiple installers, because the app will be the same for all sets of users but it will have minor UI changes (which in my opinion, don't need an entire separate release), the installers will set a flag that the app will, based on, change its UI to the corresponding set of users. For the most part it's been successful but only small issue remain like this one. The reason it's done like that is when updating I'll ship 1 release for all users to update rather than having to ship multiple releases with no difference between them

Hello, I'm trying to make a white-Label sort of thing for my app, that is: a script runs before the app launches, sets a certain LaunchAgent command that sets and environment variable, and based on that variable's value tha main app's icon changes to a certain logo (change only happens in the dock because changing the icon on disk breaks the signature) When the app launches it takes a noticeable time until the dock icon changes to what I want, so I worked around that by setting the app's plist property to hide the dock icon and then when the app is launched I call an objc++ function to display the icon in the dock again (this time it displays as the new icon) The showing happens through [NSApp setActivationPolicy:NSApplicationActivationPolicyRegular]; The problem happens when I try to close the app, it returns back to the old logo before closing which is what I want to prevent. I tried hiding the app dock icon before closing but even the hiding itself changes the icon before hiding The hiding happens through [NSApp setActivationPolicy:NSApplicationActivationPolicyProhibited]; My goal is that the main app icon doesn't appear to the user through the dock, and that the icon that is only visible is the other one that changes during runtime The reason for this is that I have an app that should be visible differently depending on an environment variable that I set using an installer app. The app is the same for all users with very minor UI adjustments depending on that env variable's value. So instead of creating different versions of the app I'd like to have just 1 version that adjusts differently depending on the env variable's value. Somehow this is the only step left to have a smooth experience Feel free to ask more clarification questions I'd be happy to help Thank you
