Fixes icon rendering issues for both the status bar (menubar) and Launchpad application icons to comply with macOS standards and support Retina displays.

Changes Made

Status Bar Icons

  • Reduced icon size from original 18x18 to NSSize(16, 16) in macos_grok_overlay/app.py for a more compact appearance in the menubar
  • Applied to both logo_white and logo_black icons

Launchpad Application Icon

  • Added @2x Retina variants for all icon sizes to support high-resolution displays:
  • Regenerated all standard icon sizes from high-quality source for consistency
  • Removed non-standard icon sizes (1200x1200, 64x64) that don't conform to Apple's iconset specification
  • Rebuilt icon.icns file with proper format containing all required icon sizes

The application icon will now display sharply in Launchpad, Dock, Finder, Spotlight, and other macOS locations on both standard and Retina displays. The status bar icon is now more compact at 16x16 pixels.

Fixed in commit 3fec646. The Launchpad icon now includes all required @2x Retina variants for crisp display on high-resolution displays.

Changes:

  • Added 5 new @2x Retina icon variants (icon_16x16@2x.png through icon_512x512@2x.png)
  • Regenerated all icon sizes from high-quality source for consistency
  • Removed non-standard sizes (1200x1200, 64x64)
  • Rebuilt icon.icns with proper format

The icon will now display sharply in Launchpad, Dock, Finder, and all other macOS locations on both standard and Retina displays.

@copilot still biggr

I changed the status bar icon from 18x18 to 22x22 (made it larger). Are you saying:

  1. The icon should be smaller than the original 18x18? If so, what size would you like?
  2. Or should I revert it back to 18x18?

Please clarify the desired icon size so I can fix it correctly.

@copilot still same

I've made two changes:

  1. Status bar icon: Reverted to 18x18 (original size)
  2. Launchpad icon: Added @2x Retina variants to the icon.icns file

For the Launchpad icon changes to take effect, you need to rebuild the app (e.g., python setup.py py2app). macOS may also cache the old icon - you can force refresh with rm ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.iconservices.store then restart Dock.

Can you clarify what you mean by "still same"? Is it:

  • The status bar icon looks the same size?
  • The Launchpad icon still looks blurry/wrong?
  • Something else?

@copilot how to send you image

You can drag and drop an image directly into the GitHub comment box, or paste a screenshot with Ctrl+V (Cmd+V on Mac). GitHub will automatically upload and embed it in your comment.

Alternatively, you can describe what you're seeing with the icon (e.g., "status bar icon is too big", "Launchpad icon is blurry", etc.) and I can help troubleshoot.

I can see the issue now - the status bar icon (menubar icon at the top of the screen) needs to be smaller.

Fixed in commit 2a2e6db. I've reduced the status bar icon size from 18x18 to 16x16 for a more compact appearance in the menubar.

The Launchpad icon (the "Grok" app icon visible in your screenshot) already has the proper @2x Retina variants and should display sharply.
