    Is there a way to set the native menus on Mac OSX at runtime without having to change the TARGET variable in the .pro file?

    See, I may need to whitelabel my project multiple times, and it would be great to simply copy in a new settings.ini file rather than have to edit that variable and recompile again.

      Hi,

      You would have to provide your own .plist file and customize the CFBundleName value.

      Hope it helps

        @SGaist Is there any way to intercept the menu paint event and swap out "app" with some other phrase? (Note, I have TARGET variable set to "app", currently.)

          No, that's the native OS X menu so you can't modify it. Again: use the Info.plist file, it's also explained in QMenuBar's documentation
