I'm trying to configure the details when I publish my .NET Maui app using the Project>Publish>Edit App Manifest. In the Visual Assets tab, I can't figure out where to change the "$placeholder$.png" labels after I use the Asset Generator.

There seems to be little/no documentation on updating these assets.

Please provide guidance/solution?

    Hello,

    There seems to be little/no documentation on updating these assets.

    For details on how to change Visual Assert, please refer to this document.

    1. Click the ... next to the Source field and select the image you want to use. For best results, use a vector-based image, Adobe Illustrator file, or PDF. If you're using a bitmap image, make sure it's at least 400 by 400 pixels so that you get sharp results.
    1. In the Display Settings section, configure these options:
    • Short name: Specify a short name for your app.
    • Show name: Indicate whether you want to display the short name on medium, wide, or large tiles.
    • Tile background: Specify the hex value or a color name for the tile background color. For example, #464646. The default value is transparent. NOTE: This setting will be ignored on versions of Windows that support theme-aware Live Tiles.
    • Splash screen background (Optional): Specify the hex value or color name for the splash screen background.
    1. Click Generate.

    Best Regards,

    Alec Liu.
