When I open the app in the simulator, I see the silhouette of the icons where they should be, but the actual icons don't display, just a gray area. I've downloaded the images from my BT control panel and put them in the BT_Images folder in Xcode, so I'm not sure why they aren't displaying. If it matters, all the images are 31 x 31 .png files Title Comments I've setup my 2.0 app in Xcode, and it's supposed to have icons i've uploaded displayed in the bottom tabs.

This could be the reason that the images are not showing up. Andy Comments Always make sure that you restart the simulator anytime you add files to it.

To be honest, that is why I use Buzztouch 1.5 instead. 1.5 already has the icons, but I think with 2.0 you need to know the file locally and get the downloads from Buzztouch mods. I haven't done this myself so I can't guide you through this. Comments Many people have had this problem, actually, all people have had this.

It may sound basic, but make sure they are typed exactly in BT as they are in Xcode (caps matter) this caught me once. Like was said, after every time you load a new file, you have to build/run it again so all of the files are included within the running version of the build. I also have had luck closing xcode and reopening, clean, build and then things work. Seems odd that this helps, but it has for weird issues in the past.

I guess iPhone doesn't allow colored tab icons like Android does, so thats why my apps were appeared grayed out. Looks like I need to make some new icons. Comments I figured it out.
