I tried using the program to convert the above image, but it comes up with an error and does not convert the png to icns. I even tried with the official OpenCore software, and even though it generates the icns correctly it doesn't show it in picker. Is it possible that it does not work for images larger than 4k?

kaoskinkae Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 It is possible that OpenCanocopy.efi in later versions will use the same method that Monterey uses to represent users with animated icons and movement as they use keyboard or mouse such as being asleep or bored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I have read, there isn't such implementation for the future. Saludos!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackosx Posted December 27, 2021 Author Share Posted December 27, 2021 Merry Christmas to everyone I've added BsxSet4Revisted OpenCanopy theme to my repo which follows OpenCore's flavour system. It's based on the icon style from Set4 where the light comes from the top right producing a deep shadow (well deep enough to fit within the icon frame while trying to keep the icon a decent size). The icons are on a transparent background so can be used on other backgrounds. 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevpatts Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Hey all, need a little help! I'm updating from 0.6.5 to 0.7.6 and took a long time but have it booting fine now. However OpenCanopy and GUI themes won't work. In the log file I get: OC: Driver OpenCanopy.efi at 2 () is skipped! and I can't figure out why. I've removed all customisations, redownloaded the files and double checked all settings. Anyone else have this problem? I have: Misc -> Boot -> PickerMode: External Misc -> Boot -> PickerAttributes: 17 Misc -> Boot -> PickerVariant: Acidanthera\GoldenGate and I have the most recent Resources in place and the correct version of OpenCanopy.efi. My screen is 5120x1440 by the way, this worked fine in 0.6.5 so I don't think it's the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miliuco Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 @kevpatts Please complete your signature, so we know the hardware you are using and is easier to help you. OpenCanopy driver must be from the same OpenCore package, same version. Do you have Enabled=true in OpenCanopy properties (Arguments, Comment, Enabled and Path)? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey @kevpatts What do you currently see when using the supplied background image? Can you take a screenshot? You will need CrScreenshotDxe.efi in \EFI\OC\Drivers then can press F10 in the UI to save an image to the root of your EFI System Partition.

pananning Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) Hello, I would like to ask, what is .contentDetails file, how should I create it, and what is its content?Is it possible to create a text file just like the .contentFlavour file?

Within macOS, you can create the file with the Terminal command touch .contentDetails or sudo touch .contentDetails (if the working folder is a system folder and it needs administrator privileges). Yo can edit the file with the Terminal command pico .contentDetails or sudo pico .contentDetails (if the working folder is a system folder and it needs administrator privileges). The file is a text file containing only the name of the macOS volume. It must be located at /System/Volumes/Preboot/UUID-number/System/Library/CoreServices where UUID-number is the UUID of the APFS volume group where Preboot volume is located, you can do "diskutil list" and "diskutil info diskx" where diskx is the APFS Container Scheme.
