Hi Jerry, there are two methods which are used with NSStatusItem:
- (void)setImage: - (void)setAlternateImage: They both do exactly what you think they would. The setImage method just sets the standard image and alternate image is when it's activated. They both take an NSImage See the reference code: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSStatusItem_Class/Reference/Reference.html Cheers Simon On 8 Dec 2013, at 3:47 pm, Jerry Krinock <je...@ieee.org> wrote: > How can I make my app’s Status Item (“menulet", right side of menu bar) have > a different icon than its icon shown in the Dock and Finder? > > I cannot find any mention of this in “Status Item Programming Topics”, and > tests indicate that it simply uses the same .icns resource indicated by > CFBundleIconFile in Info.plist.
