Hi Chas,
You should actually do these things using commands in the Finder. In
the Finder, select the window you want to customize, then press
command-J. This brings up the View Options panel for that Finder
window. You can change the background image and control text and
icon size. That should modify the .DS_Store file & save the image as
a hidden file for you.
Best,
Luke

Hello,
I have an installable package which I have the following issues
preparing
the package and was hoping I could get some help from this list.
1) My background image for my disk image is not opening to
encompass the
entire image when I have auto-open set.
2) My custom icon for the disk image is not appearing.
3) Neither my background image or my custom icon are appearing
Panther.
The person who implemented this package did basically the following
assuming
folder "PackageDir" for the folder to build the disk image from:
1) Move background.jpg into the .hidden directory in PackageDir,
2) Move _DS_Store into the root of PackageDir renamed as .DS_Store,
3) Move VolumeIcon.icns into the root of PackageDir renamed as
.VolumeIcon.icns
Not sure if this is the correct way to do things.
Any advice, better methods, etc. would be appreciated. I need it
to all run
from the command line for automation, but beyond that anything that
will
make it work I would be happy to hear about.
Thank you for your help,
Chas.
