Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: pd-extended Group: v0.40.2
Status: Closed
Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Luke Iannini (lukeiannini) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Pd extended.app shows extra process in dock
Initial Comment: An anonymously-iconed "pd" application shows up alongside the usual Pd.app in the dock when Pd-Extended is running. Don't know when this started; it definitely hasn't always happened.
This is on both my PPC and Intel mac using 0.40 autobuilds; not sure if it occurs in 392RC2 as well.

I get it everytime I start a gemwin, I think that is normal. On a different computer than mine, I started Pd-0.39-2-extended-rc3 and it started the extra icon just by starting Pd. It only seemed to happen on that machine, which was a PowerMac G5 running 10.4.9.

I fail to see that anonymous icon in my dock. This is RC3.

That hint tells you how to hide the main Pd.app icon, which would be the inverse of what you probably want.
This is the hack in question, check out the "rez_install" target in packages/darwin_app/Makefile to see how this file is used:

Hans, Does this help at all? http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20010701191518268 (sorry, I have no idea of the nature of the hack)

That extra icon in the dock is triggered by a hack that allows the gemwin to act like a normal window. Perhaps there is a way to make that icon disappear, but still let the gemwin be moveable and to be in front.
