NoodleLabs: Super Duper Menu Bar Icon Tester Thing

My graphic designer is working on a menu bar icon for the next version of Hazel. The problem is that it’s hard to visualize them in situ. To aid my designer in this regard, I threw together a quick little proggie. It’s just a simple program that has a menu bar icon. It provides a controls where you can edit NSStatusItem settings as well as image wells into which you can drag icons. The status item updates so you can see your icons in their natural habitat.

I also added an image well where you can test out app icons to see how they look in the dock.

Source (what very little there is) and binary included. MIT license. Valentine’s Day has passed but it’s never too late to show your designer a little love.
