v1.1.1
FloppyBootCD v1.1.1 — floppy-disk app icon
A small visual upgrade: every prebuilt now ships with a proper floppy-disk app icon, integrated into:
- The macOS
.appbundle (Finder, Dock, Cmd-Tab, About) - The Windows
.exe(Explorer, taskbar, Alt-Tab) - The Linux
.desktopentry (icon.png in the bundle) - The Qt main window itself (
QApplication.setWindowIcon) so every window/dialog inherits it
The icon is a pixel-art 3.5" floppy disk with red italic wordmark FloppyCD on the label and a boot disc builder subtitle — designed off the same 64×64 grid and crisp-edge style as PaqPlace's floppy-disk icon, used as a visual reference for the floppy disk shape and proportions.
What's in the bundle
floppybootcd/resources/ ships:
icon.svg— canonical vector source (64×64 viewBox)icon.png— 512×512 raster used at runtime by Qticon.ico— Windows multi-resolution (16/24/32/48/64/128/256)icon.icns— macOS iconset (16/32/64/128/256/512/1024 + retina)
PyInstaller picks the right one per platform via --icon. At runtime, floppybootcd/app.py loads icon.png via importlib.resources and calls QApplication.setWindowIcon().
