Icon name in ios?

The app name and icon name are two different names on the ios. Plants Vs. Zombies shows up as pvz on the icon name.  How does one accomplish changing the icon name without changing the application name?

Hi dissipation:
I think You are talking about the name of the application on iOS home screen against the name of application in the Recently used apps bar (The bar that comes on pressing the home button twice).
I think, AIR doesn allow mentioning the short names. There is an ugly workaround if you have a mac. You can modifiy the info.plist to add "CFBundleName" key (Or replace it with the short value as you want.) and the re-codesign the application. (See more info here)
For More info on how you can modify info.plist and recodesign on mac. You can see this tutorial. (In the step 4 you can add/replace key/values in info.plist)
EDIT: I am still not sure about the question. Are you asking that the name of the application on iTunes store is different than what you see on the phone? (Those two names have no relation. iTunes Store name is selected/provided on iTunes Portal itself whereas the name of the application that shows up on device is is given in Info.plist/app-xml for AIR)

  • My ipad VIDEOS app doesn't show the movie Names with IOS 7

    I just upgraded to IOS 7.  The Apple VIDEOS app no longer displays the file name for videos that don't have album art.  I have to tap on each video screen shot (which is typically meaningless) to bring up the info/play screen to see the movie's "Name".  Under IOS 6.1.4 (and prior versions) the VIDEOS app displayed the .mp4 file name underneath all videos without album art.
    Is there an option to set to get the "Name" displayed on the VIDEOS main screen, or get a LIST view rather than an icon view, using IOS 7? (I have not found one)
    Since most of my movies do not have album art this makes the VIDEOS app virtually useless.

    OK, I gave up.  You just can't fight city hall.
    After messing with changing from 'Movie' to 'Home Video' I just said screw it.  I just finished doing the following for my 64 'Home Video' movies:
    - I did a Google image search on <movie name> poster
    - I clicked on the thumbnail to bring up the image
    - I did a right-click SAVE IMAGE AS
    - I then did a GET INFO on the movie through iTunes
    - I clicked on the ARTWORK tab
    - I added the image I just found as the the artwork
    - I change the MEDIA KIND back to MOVIE
    - I then recopied the movies I keep on my iPad (about 10) from the PC
    No more problems now either with viewing the local or Shared movie lists from my iPad. As I add new movies I will make sure to manually add the artwork.  What a PITA.
    Hopefully Apple will get this fixed. This movie UI painfulness (that wasn't even a problem on IOS 6.x) is something worthy of Microsoft.

  • How to make use of 'Icon Name' in Logical link?

    I see the option 'Icon name' in 'define logical links' in SPRO. It does not however has an F4. I tried giving the name of image in the relevant skin. But no image appears besides the logical link. Is there something else that needs to be done to get an image besides workcenter link? How to make use of this 'Icon Name' in logical link?

    Hi,
    i guess this icon_name is not possible for every skin in CRM70.
    We use nova skin - here it is not possible.
    With default skin i saw icons for example on the salespro startpage.
    Kind regards

    If you mean you wish to close apps running in the background or remove them from the app bar, double-click the Home button to bring up the app screen, then swipe upwards on the app.

  • To change the icon name displayed by default while an ALV is displayed.

    Hi Experts ,
    Need to change the icon name EXPORT displayed by default , while an ALV is displayed to Download to Excel.
    How can this be achieved?
    Regards.

    Hi,
    You can copy the Status 'Standard' of the program 'SAPLKKBL' and create a Z. Change the icon name in the Z pf-status as wished. Now in the event slis_ev_pf_status_set of 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' set the PF-Status to the Z that u created.

  • Change of Icon name

    How can change icon name for project in iphone,
    I tried changing bundle name in xcode that change reflects in simulator but not in iphone,if any body has a idea
    <Post Relocated by Moderator>

    When I needed to change my product name from "MyApp" to "MyApp Lite" I read several threads here, obtaining one or two pieces of the puzzle from each. Here are the steps that finally worked for me:
    To rename an Xcode project and its product:
    1) Rename project folder
    2) Rename .xcodeproj file
    3) *Delete Build folder
    4) Project->Edit Active Target->General: Edit Name
    5) Project->Edit Active Target->Build->Packaging: Edit 'Product Name'
    6) *Project->Edit Active Target->Build->Language: Edit 'Prefix Header'
    7) Repeat 5-6 for all configurations (Debug, Release, Distribution)
    8) *Rename _Prefix.pch file
    9) Build->Clean All Targets for all configurations
    The starred steps may not be necessary, but I'm reporting the exact procedure I logged just to be sure. I think you can also omit the repeats in step 7 by following iphonemediaman's advice to select "All Configurations".
    Note that the above changes your PRODUCT_NAME definition, which may change your App ID. So if you intend to submit your renamed project as an update, you may need to reset the Bundle identifier in info.plist. I.e., if this field includes the default '${PRODUCT_NAME:identifier}',
    replace that portion of the id with the previous project name to build an update:
    10) Edit 'Bundle identifier' in info.plist: com.MyCompany.OldName
    Finally, if your new project name includes spaces, these must be removed in two places:
    11) Remove any spaces from 'Bundle identifier' in info.plist
    12) Remove any spaces in the name of the zip file you upload to the store

  • Icon name as Global variable

    Hi,
    In my forms i can set a single static icon name for a button. Is it possible to give the icon name as global variable name to change the icon of the button dynamically by changin the value of the global variable.
    Using set_item_property i can change. But it seems tough to implement in my forms.
    Please Help!
    Balaji.M

    What's the problem with set_item_property??
    You can use the global variables to store the name of icon file to associate with the button.
    But, ultimately you'll have to use the set_item_property to reflect the changes dynamically.
    set_item_property(<block.item name>,ICON_NAME,:global.<icon file name>);
    I don't think, by just setting global variables you can get your requirement to work.
    You'll have to use set_item_property, if you want to change the icon file name dynamically.
    Please mark answer as helpful / correct, if it helps you

  • Dynamically change icon name of push button

    Hi,
    I would like to ask how to dynamically change the icon name attribute of a push button in dialog programming. What is the syntax for assigning an icon name during runtime?
    I am currently doing a multiple selection function for KNA1-KUNNR.
    Initially, the icon name is ICON_ENTER_MORE. When the user picks up more than one customer, it should automatically change to ICON_DISPLAY_MORE. How can I do this?
    here's the code i currently have:
    DESCRIBE TABLE kunnr_ran LINES l_kunnr.
    IF l_kunnr > 1.
          g_add_multiple = 'X'.
      BT_MULT_CUST-icon_name = 'ICON_DISPLAY_MORE'.
    ELSEIF l_kunnr = 1.
         CLEAR g_add_multiple.
      BT_MULT_CUST-icon_name = 'ICON_ENTER_MORE'.
    ENDIF.
    The name of my pushbutton is BT_MULT_CUST.
    The code in ** is not correct. I don't know the syntax in SAP. But that is how it is done in VB for example.
    Thank you.
    che =)

    If you have not found your answer already, please try the following:
    1)  In screen layout painter: for the pushbutton in question (i.e. pb_multi_select), mark the "Output field" on the program attributes tab in the attributes window for the pushbutton.  Make sure that its visible length is at least 2 too.  This will "gray out" the "Text" and other fields.
    2) In the TOP INCLUDE of the module program:  add a variable for the pushbutton that is of type "icons-text" and don't forget to include <icons>.  Below is an example
    INCLUDE <icon>
    DATA: pb_multi_select TYPE icons-text.
    3) In a module called in the PBO modules for the screen that needs its button changed, call the function "ICON_CREATE" and pass at minimum the name of the icon and the field that you specified in step 2.  Below is an example using the icon "ICON_DISPLAY_MORE", "ICON_ENTER_MORE", and a flag variable "MULTI_SEL_INFO_EXISTS" that indicates if any multiple selection information has already been entered.  It would be set by the program (not automatically, but by coding) prior to the "IF" statement:
    IF multi_sel_info_exists = 'X'.
      CALL FUNCTION 'ICON_CREATE'
          EXPORTING
             name = 'ICON_DISPLAY_MORE'
          IMPORTING
             result = pb_multi_select.
    ELSE.
      CALL FUNCTION 'ICON_CREATE'
          EXPORTING
             name = 'ICON_ENTER_MORE'
          IMPORTING
             result = pb_multi_select.
    ENDIF.
    You can change the button as you see fit with multiple different calls inside of "IF" or "CASE" statements.  Please see documentation for "ICON_CREATE" for other parameters.
    Hope this helps,
    Brian

  • Need some help changing the Home icon name in Lion

    OK, I want to change the home icon name in Lion, I've been following these instructions to enable root user, BUT
    How to enable the root user
    OS X Lion
    From the Apple menu choose System Preferences....
    From the View menu choose Users & Groups.
    Click the lock and authenticate as an administrator account.
    Click Login Options....
    Click the "Edit..." or "Join..." button at the bottom right.
    Click the "Open Directory Utility..." button.
    Click the lock in the Directory Utility window.
    Enter an administrator account name and password, then click OK.
    Choose Enable Root User from the Edit menu.
    Enter the root password you wish to use in both the Password and Verify fields, then click OK.
    After I get to step 6, the director utility opens... the lock is already unlocked, I click it and it locks, click it again, enter my admin password... but there is no option to "Enable Root User" I only see a list of services "Active Directory", "LDAPv3" & "NIS". I'm lost, and I don't want to screw anything up here! Thanks for the help!

    You're looking in the wrong place. After you click the padlock, forget about that window and go to the menubar, top of your screen where it says
    Directory Utility | File | Edit | Help
    From the Edit menu choose 'enable root user'

    Call your local Apple store. Not sure how the phone system works in the UK, but here in the US there is a menu system that allows you to make an appointment. Or, you can go online to www.apple.com/retail, or you can use the Apple Store app and make an appointment there after selecting the particular store.
