I am having some problems with the Mask setting in ResEdit when I use it to
make a custom icon for my application. I made my icon, then altered the mask
setting so it would appear differently when I selected it. I used the way the
icons appear on the bottom line of the ICN# editing window as my guide. However,
when I placed the application on the disk the icon did not change when I clicked
it; rather, I got a weird hybrid of what I wanted and the unselected icon. Is
this a flaw in ResEdit, or some undocumented "Feature" of the Finder (version
6.0)? Any ideas out there on how I can implement what I want? Just e-mail me
the answer; I'm sure I'm just missing something extremely obvious. Thanks in
advance.
