+> ALSO SEE https://www.ej-technologies.com/resources/install4j/help/doc/concepts/dmgStyling.html
+
+First create a dmg with no DS_Store (or an existing one if you just want to edit one)
+```
+cp ../../build/install4j/11/Jalview-OFFLINE_macos-app_DEVELOPMENT-j11.dmg ./temp.dmg
hdiutil convert temp.dmg -format UDRW -o temp_rw.dmg
+```
-CURSIZE=`hdiutil resize temp_rw.dmg | perl -n -e 'm/^\s*\d+\s+(\d+)\s+\d+$/ && print "$1\n";'`
+If you are creating a new dmg, or want to add more files than remaining space, then you will need to add some capacity to the dmg. If you're just doing small edits then you might get away without the following block of commands used to resize the dmg.
+```
+CURSIZE=`hdiutil resize temp_rw.dmg | perl -n -e 'm/^\s*\d+\s+(\d+)\s+\d+$/ && print "$1\n";'`
NEWSIZE=$(( CURSIZE + 20000))
-
hdiutil resize -sectors $NEWSIZE temp_rw.dmg
-
+```
+Continue by opening the dmg in Finder. The `/Volumes/...` folder will depend on the dmg you're editing.
+```
+open temp_rw.dmg
open /Volumes/Jalview\ Installer
+```
+Then manually position/resize icons, extend size of Finder window, etc so that the Finder window looks how you want it.
+You can use the
-### Position/resize icons, extend size of Finder window, etc

+```
cp /Volumes/Jalview\ Installer/.DS_Store ./DS_Store_N
umount /Volumes/Jalview\ Installer
