As I said in the last discussion on this, it is defined by your plasmaJust for clarity, I'm happy with the default monochrome systray icons,
theme. Just find a plasma theme that has colored icons.
and I'm not looking to change them on my KDE4 installs.
When you (todd) said the icons are theme related (I guess I missed it
in the last discussion) I thought I'd try to find a theme that had
color icons. I just now installed 26 new themes (using Configure
Desktop > Workspace Appearance > Desktop Theme > Get New Themes). Out
of those 26 themes I installed, exactly zero had color systray icons.
One, called Opaquity, had different icons that were slightly more grey
than the default icons... that's the closest I found (in my random
sample of new and top rated themes for KDE4) to a theme with "color"
icons. In fact, this (Opaquity) is the only theme I found so far that
actually changed the default icons in any way.
So.. given that highly unscientific test, I can understand why people
who want color icons are spinning their proverbial wheels on this
topic over and over. Finding a theme with color icons is not a simple
case of "just install a different theme"... what theme should we be
suggesting? We cannot fob the users off with a "solution" that, while
most likely technically correct, is essentially useless to them.
I just tried an additional 8 themes (so a total of 34 themes piked at
random)... still not one that changed the colors of the systray icons.
