Sometimes it was possible to have the OS rebuild the database that makes the association of file with icon to fix that. More recently that trick has stopped working and I had all icons as the BBEdit icon for text files even though double clicking the file still opened it in TeXShop. To at least give the files a unique icon I've been using the QLColorCode.qlgenerator which creates a QuickLook preview icon with the TeXShop icon in the background behind a facsimile of the text on the first page of the document along with the word TEX at the bottom.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">If El Capitan fixes this problem I'd be grateful.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The .tex file icon from TeXShop is</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="CE56C20E-FDDC-4E10-A16A-FA92CDCFA5F7" height="480" width="480" apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes" src="cid:A6A13617-D0E4-4838-91AC-C37E7C834F87@wowway.com" class=""></div><div class="">Really beautiful!</div><div class=""><br class=""><div class="">Good Luck,<br class=""><br class="">Herb Schulz<br class="">(herbs at wideopenwest dot com)<br class=""><br class=""><br class=""><br class=""><br class=""></div><br class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div></div></body></html>
