custom panel icons - how to export when creating .mxi file or package in .zxp ?

Oct 21, 2011 2:32 AM

I'm trying to create a custom icon for my panel when docked in Photoshop CS5 (Mac).

 

I can use the steps outlined in a recent post (create 2 .png files and place them manually in the plug ins/panels/MyPanel/Content folder after the panel has been exported).

 

How can I get them to be automatically placed when I export the .mxi file ? - If I place the 2 .png files in the .gpc assets folder they get exported to the directory: plug ins/panels/MyPanel/Content/MyPanel.assets folder instead.

 

If I'm going to pakage the panel as a .zxp file, is there a suitable file token I can add to the .mxi file to move them instead ?

 

Thanks in advance

    Solved - edited the .mxi file and added the following item:

     

    <file source="MyPanelNormal.png" destination="$panels/MyPanel/content"/>

     

    I'd tried it a few times without success on an existing panel. Worked OK on a new Panel.
