I installed KDE Plasma theme editor, changed the theme and replaced NetworkManager icons with those from oxygen theme
AFAIK the icons are actually included in the theme, they are just in the wrong file, network.svgz (which was used by the old KDE4 network applet). Maybe it would be better to use those instead? (no idea how complete they are though, or if there's actually any difference to Oxygen) The same applies to the other openSUSE* themes btw. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Hello and thanks for your quick reply. I have no problem at all with your recommendation. I did not want to step on anyone's role. My purpose was only to show a theme that currently does not display icons well. I hope it will get fixed as dark themes are quite popular nowadays. If further help is required from my end, feel free to reach out to me. Thanks! Mauro -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

You certainly didn't. This is a long-standing problem (and also has been reported here a few times already), but so far nobody bothered to do anything about it. The openSUSE* themes stem from old KDE4 times and are mostly unchanged since then. I did have it in the back of my head to work on the themes since quite a while, but never came round to fix them either (there's always something else to do, most of the time "more important)... :-/). And I'm not an artist anyway, creating missing icons would probably not be something I'd want to do.
If further help is required from my end, feel free to reach out to me.
Well, the main problem is probably time here. Your help and/or some work on the openSUSE* themes would definitely be welcome. Ideally, you'd submit your modified files on guthub though I think: https://github.com/openSUSE/plasma-opensuse My only "concern" is that if we replace the theme's icons with the ones from Oxygen, we could just as well drop the theme completely, as Oxygen is available anyway. OTOH, just replacing the network icons would definitely be better then the current state of course, even if the style is different from the other icons included. Unless someone still would want to create the missing icons based on the existing ones... PS: my previous comment was not correct (it's been a while since I last looked at the themes...). The additional icons I was thinking of are only available in the openSUSElight theme (in completely unused files, but also in the proper ones), but those use a completely different style anyway, so that's not of much use here. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

PS: The openSUSEdark has breeze-dark set as fallback theme. So if we just delete network.svgz, the icons should be taken from breeze-dark.
Mixing breeze-dark and Oxygen by adding network.svgz from the latter is probably not the best way to go forward...
Or should we maybe change that fallback to Oxygen? (we'd still only have to remove network.svgz then)
Hi, Quick disclaimer. I am not an artist/designer too. I know my way around inkscape and other graphics manipulation software. I am not sure if I am good wnough to create completely new icon sets, but I am willing to help. Yeah I saw the fallback. I think keeping the opensuse themes is great. The bit of customization, start icon for the application launcher, those small touches are really nice for new users. So if you are ok with me helping out a bit, this is what I would do. 1. Check all opensuse themes on plasma, gather a feel of what icons are used by the various themes. Check if there are consistent fallback themes and write those down. 2. Choose a single fallback theme, or more accurately one light and one dark, for all opensuse themes. 3. See if icons are custom for one of the themes. If so,take those and use inkscape to invert colors so we can obtain both a light and dark version of it. 4. Modify all themes that are not reflecting the standard opensuse theme look and feel. 5. Submit for approval. Do you think this is a good plan? Cheers Mauro -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
