Module Suite Project Properties Dialog Box: Application
See Also
You open the Module Suite Project Properties dialog box by right-clicking
a module suite project and choosing Properties.
The Build page specifies the look-and-feel of an application built on
top of the NetBeans Platform. Set the following properties:
- Create Collection of Add-on Modules. Specifies that
you do not want to create a standalone application. For example, in this case
you might want to add the suite to an existing application, such as the IDE. Alternatively, you
might be using the suite to add a library wrapper to a module, without wanting the module to be available
as a standalone application. When you select
this radiobutton, the remaining controls in this panel, and the Splash Screen subpanel, are not enabled.
- Create Standalone Application. Specifies that
you want to create a standalone application, with branding details such as a splash screen, progress bar,
and application title. When you select this checkbox,
the remaining controls in this panel, and the Splash Screen subpanel, are enabled.
- Branding Name. Specifies the name of the application's executable.
- Application Title. Specifies the title that will appear in the application's titlebar.
- Application Icon. Specifies an icon with a dimension of 48x48 pixels, that will
be displayed in the application's About dialog box, which will be available
under the Help menu. Note that this icon does not set the executable's icon.
If you want to customize the executable's icon, you need to make use of an external
resource editor, many of which are freely available on-line.
