Thanks for reporting. Is this happening with the continuous built too? You downloaded the dmg file from GitHub?

hey @DamirPorobic - I've downloaded the latest macos release from the GitHub project - the continuous build doesn't contain a mac build

It should be there in couple of minutes but the result is going to be the same. I'll have a look into it.
One more question maybe, was the version tag there written in previous ksnip versions?

I've just checked versions 1.5.0 / 1.6.1 / 1.7.1 and 1.7.2 - version number is always missing - I've noticed it because the app has a homebrew cask now (https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/master/Casks/ksnip.rb) and the downloaded file had an empty version string

Ok, I'll check how to fix that.

@suschizu can you check if this is fixed in the latest continuous build version from here https://github.com/ksnip/ksnip/releases/tag/continuous?

hey @DamirPorobic - no sorry - the issue isn't resolved - the info.plist is still missing the BundleVersion and ShortVersionString key

	<key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key>
	<string></string>
…
	<key>CFBundleVersion</key>
	<string></string>

Sorry I need to clarify this again, do you use the dmg from github directly to install ksnip or do you get it through the Brew Cask?

I have added some additional version string variables, let's see if they change something. The CI is currently unusually slow, it might take up to 2 hours till my latest changes are available. Would be nice if you could later this afternoon check again if you see any version string and if yes, which one. @suschizu

hey @DamirPorobic - I used the github download (but brew cask uses the same download url)

not sure if this will help:
https://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-4.8/mac-differences.html

@suschizu thanks. We set those variables via CMAKE before we build, Qt uses only the result. I have found three other variables that could be used to define the version and I have the suspicion that the variable from where we read the version was not set. The new dmg package should be finished in couple of minutes, let's see if anything is in there.

@suschizu give it a try now.

hey @DamirPorobic - here we go 👍

thanks for your patience :)

the info.plist looks good too now:

<dict>
	<key>CFBundleDevelopmentRegion</key>
	<string>English</string>
	<key>CFBundleExecutable</key>
	<string>ksnip</string>
	<key>CFBundleGetInfoString</key>
	<string>Cross-Platform Screenshot and Annotation Tool</string>
	<key>CFBundleIconFile</key>
	<string>ksnip.icns</string>
	<key>CFBundleIdentifier</key>
	<string>org.ksnip.ksnip</string>
	<key>CFBundleInfoDictionaryVersion</key>
	<string>6.0</string>
	<key>CFBundleLongVersionString</key>
	<string>1.8.1b</string>
	<key>CFBundleName</key>
	<string></string>
	<key>CFBundlePackageType</key>
	<string>APPL</string>
	<key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key>
	<string>1.8.1a</string>
	<key>CFBundleSignature</key>
	<string>????</string>
	<key>CFBundleVersion</key>
	<string>1.8.1c</string>
	<key>CSResourcesFileMapped</key>
	<true/>
	<key>NSHumanReadableCopyright</key>
	<string></string>
</dict>

Great, now I know where the issue might be. Those are currently only hard coded strings, will make it dynamic again tonight.

Thanks for testing!
