What changed
applicationIconImageoverride that bypassed the system icon stackWhy
The app was supplying a pre-shaped legacy icon and replacing the bundle icon at runtime. On current macOS versions, that path is treated as compatibility artwork, producing an oversized black square inside a gray plate in the Dock and during launch/quit animations.
The app now lets macOS render the native icon composition and apply its own mask, sizing, and lifecycle effects.
Impact
Nativ now displays a correctly sized black rounded icon without the gray border in the Dock, Applications, and app launch/quit transitions.
