Standalone application name

Post by MikeC »

Can't find an answer to this in any of the documentation.

Whenever I save a standalone application on the Mac, when running the app, the name I gave it appears in the title bar but always has * an asterisk at the end of the name.

Why?

That is letting you know that it is using the name of the stack in the title bar rather than the label. If you set a label to the stack it will use that instead and there will be no asterisk.

EDIT: Er.. title of the stack. Not label. (same diff, different name)
