[Tutorial] How to add icons next to your switch in a Patcher!

Today I'll show you how to add and icon next to your patchers settings like in the screenshot below: 

 

 

Let's get started!

 

1. You will need to find some icons on the internet or you can grab them from the Apps .app folder.

 

Some icon sites: 

 

 

http://icons8.com/

https://www.iconfinder.com/

http://www.iconspedia.com/

http://www.iconarchive.com/

http://www.softicons.com/

 

 

 

2. Icon size should be 29x29/32x32/48x48 and you will also need an [email protected] for iPads (57x57) but I haven't figured that out yet since I don't own an iPad.

 

3. After you have obtained the icons, you will upload them in the "Resources" folder of you Preference Bundle project folder. Name them as you wish so you won't get mixed up when editing the plist. If you don't know where that folder is then read this tutorial.

 

 

 

 

4. Now edit the .plist file which is also located in the Resources folder.

<dict>
			<key>cell</key>
			<string>PSGroupCell</string>
			<key>footerText</key>
			<string>Gives you unlimited Gold when turned on.</string> //Displays text under the switch
		</dict>
		<dict>
			<key>cell</key>
			<string>PSSwitchCell</string>
			<key>default</key>
			<false/>
			<key>defaults</key>
			<string>com.iosgods.xxxx</string>
			<key>icon</key>
			<string>ICONNAMEHERE.PNG</string> //This is where you will insert your icon name
			<key>key</key>
			<string>kKEY</string>
			<key>label</key>
			<string>Unlimited Gold</string>
		</dict>

So you need to replace ICONNAMEHERE.PNG with the icon name in the Resources folder you uploaded. In my case it's "gold.png" so I will enter that there.

<dict>
			<key>cell</key>
			<string>PSGroupCell</string>
			<key>footerText</key>
			<string>Gives you unlimited Gold when turned on.</string>
		</dict>
		<dict>
			<key>cell</key>
			<string>PSSwitchCell</string>
			<key>default</key>
			<false/>
			<key>defaults</key>
			<string>com.iosgods.xxx</string>
			<key>icon</key>
			<string>gold.png</string>
			<key>key</key>
			<string>kKEY</string>
			<key>label</key>
			<string>Unlimited Gold</string>
		</dict>

Same thing goes with the rest of the switches. Just add the code below and replace the icon name with the one you have.

<key>icon</key>
<string>icon.png</string>

You can also add icons next to buttons or even better replace them with the text completely.

 

That's it! Stay tuned for more!
