How to use image and title for the app-icon when building mobile app with asp.net wrappers?

[Nicklas]

Previously, I added an icon and a title to my mobile app like this: 

window.app = new kendo.mobile.Application(document.body, {
    layout: "mainLayout",
    skin: "flat",
    hideAddressBar: true,
    icon: "Images/FileName.png",
    title: "App Name"
});

Whereas now, I can't seem to figure out how to do this. Any suggestions? :)

Hello Nicklas,

The icon feature is missing in Mobile MVC wrappers. We will log it and try to provide a fix as soon as possible.
The 'title' is a non existing option. I am not sure how you managed to use it. What is it supposed to do? Do you mean updateDocumentTitle?

Thanks for the feedback.
Is there a workaround allowing me to give my app an Icon?

 No, for me, when using title, it saves me from having to type the app name when I save a shortcut to my mobile "desktop". This gives the impression that the app already has a name when saving it as a shortcut :)

Hello Nicklas,

The only workaround I can suggest is to initialize the mobile application via JavaScript instead of using MVC syntax. For example instead of:

@(Html.Kendo().MobileApplication()
    .ServerNavigation(true)
    .Layout("examples")
)

You can write JavaScript configuration (code should be located at the same place):

<script>
   jQuery(function(){ new kendo.mobile.Application(jQuery(document.body), {
         "hideAddressBar":true,
         "updateDocumentTitle":true,
         "serverNavigation":true,
         "layout":"examples",
         "icon": "Icon URL"
      });
   });
</script>

I hope this will suit in your scenario.
