iconStiX
v.4.6.1 for macOS 13- (7.95 MB) download
Easy-to-use custom icon tool to combine and attach images to desktop items. Base price (CHF 7) will be adjusted on your Mac App Store. 
iconStiX is a custom icon tool to combine images, shapes & text and attach the composition to desktop items such as folder. You can use the app normally or as Finder's services.
Main changes in v.4.6.1:
∙ iconStiX v.3.8- documents are saved in the format (.istxd instead of .istx) to let thumbnails visible in the Finder. ∙ If a custom icon cannot be attached to a disk image volume, make sure enough memory is left in the volume. ∙ Custom icons cannot be added to volumes if macOS versions are installed. If added before installing macOS (e.g. just after making a partition), they are visible afterwards. ∙ Genmoji is available on the Emoji panel if the system environment supports it. Click once to select a saved one or create a new one. |
Possible issue by frequent icon change:
Frequent icon change may result in hindering proper icon change.
