Hi @n.d.k this looks awesome and I am looking forward to testing it on my 4K setup. One question as I am not very familiar with C. Is there any possibility to extend the OC_BOOT_ENTRY_TYPE enum and override BootEntryManagement.c -> OcDescribeBootEntry in order to add another boot entry type for Time Machine ? It would be cool to not be returned as OcBootUnknown thus being able to have a custom icon for it too.

Andres ZeroCross Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 @NDK can background.png automatically check the monitor resolution?? It will be great, if the background can detect automatically screen resolution.

It would be cool to not be returned as OcBootUnknown thus being able to have a custom icon for it too. There's a simple remedy for this. Create a custom entry for your time machine backup (you'll need the path ) and add the name "clone" to the name field ( ex below ). You''be able to use the Icon "Clone" for your time machine needs. I'm using the same principle for my USB backup drive ( with Carbon Copy Cloner ). @n.d.k Love the new selector. Will soon recreate my icons with 256px.

But on Clover, the default themes are 128. According to my point of view, it's because not everyone has a 4k screen at the moment.
