The value under the CFBundleName key in ist is what shows up in the menubar.Īs far as I know, changing either these at runtime isn't going to work… but what you can do is have two versions of your app, a root and non-root version, inside your user-facing. They aren’t always the same, especially in Microsoft and Adobe products.įrom what I can tell, the name in the dock is the name of the application bundle (sans ".app") on the filesystem. …there are at least five application names floating around, at least in concept: (1) the file name the Finder sees, which in the case of an application package is the package (bundle) name (2) the name of the executable inside the package, (3) the long name used in many places for display purposes only (4) the short name used as the application menu title and in a few other places where a long name won’t fit for display purposes and (5) the process name of a running application. ![]()
