specified icon not being used when generating osx build

See original GitHub issue

specifying a build to use a specific icon when building like this:

  "build": {
    "osx": {
      "icon": "./images/myIcon.icns"
    }
  },

the icon is only being used in the .dmg installation title bar and for the mounted dmg on the desktop, but the default electron icon is being used everywhere else (app tray icon, etc.). Is there anything that I need to do besides what I have shown here to get this behavior?

Enough. We got enough feedback.

  • deprecate osx
  • introduce dmg. use osx if present and warn that it is deprecated. all appdmg options goes here.
  • introduce mac — all mac platform options goes here. To not break existing behaviour, use osx as base and warn that it is deprecated.
  • allow to override app icon using mac.icon.

D’oh. Okay, placing icon.icns in the right place causes the expected behavior. Thanks for your clarification!
