How to apply "hardcode-tray" script in KDE?

[alex-oleshkevich]

I ran

hardcode-tray -t Papirus -a
hardcode-tray -t Papirus-Dark -a

removed ~/.cache and /var/tmp/kde-$user/icon.cache file but tray icons are still colored:

Icons are applied via systemsettings and installed in home directory.

skypeforlinux already fixed on hardcode-tray, please update version from git and restart skype:

hardcode-tray -ug
hardcode-tray -s 22 -fs

Also use -f option for locate path icons on telegram, for example:

hardcode-tray -s 22 -fs -o telegram -p ~/Downloads/Telegram`

[varlesh]

oops, -p option not needed for telegram, because by default telegram create folder with icons here:

~/.local/share/TelegramDesktop/tdata/ticons/

See sources: https://github.com/bil-elmoussaoui/Hardcode-Tray/blob/master/database/telegram.json

You need update hardcode-tray from git, run script again and restart apps. See hardcode-tray --help

[alex-oleshkevich]

no luck:

Again, could it be a reason that I have installed icons in /home? Droppping caches does not help:

rm -rf ~/.cache 
rm -rf /var/tmp/kdecache-alex/icon.cache
kquitapp plasmashell ; plasmashell

how you install hardcode-tray and patched sni-qt?

[alex-oleshkevich]

via package manager:

pacman -Q | egrep 'sni-qt|hardco'
hardcode-tray 3.5.2.1-1
lib32-sni-qt 0.2.6-6
sni-qt 0.2.6-4

[varlesh]

You have error with GTK parsing, i'm have earlier this bug too: https://github.com/bil-elmoussaoui/Hardcode-Tray/issues/235 It's bug kdesudo or sudo... I think you run some gtk apps with sudo/kdesudo. For example kdesudo systemsettings5 or sudo gsettings

[varlesh]

also package sni-qt 0.2.6-4 - it's not patched sni-qt!

But you can temporary try old patched sni-qt version: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sni-qt-eplus-bzr/

I don't know why show error with GTK parsing, but this not Papirus bug... i think it's bug for kde only, because on GTK DE's not reproduced. @bil-elmoussaoui why this happened on kde and why needed GTK for hardcode-tray?

[alex-oleshkevich]

@varlesh I don't think that this is a root cause. It's just a deprecation notices.

[alex-oleshkevich]

@varlesh, as per spi-qt-eplus description: Qt4 plugin which turns all QSystemTrayIcon into StatusNotifierItems. Elementary+ version, from bzr

I cannot use it with KDE because it patches Qt apps to work with GTK DEs. KDE exactly requires QSystemTrayIcon

No, it's needed for right work for Qt-apps! See readme https://github.com/bil-elmoussaoui/Hardcode-Tray#manual-install

[varlesh]

On AUR hardcode-tray depends: gtk3 (gtk3-aqd, gtk3-donnatella, gtk3-light, gtk3-nobroadway-nowayland-nocolord, gtk3-optional-csd, gtk3-typeahead, gtk3-ubuntu, gtk3-ubuntu-multilib) librsvg (librsvg-git) python python-cairosvg python-gobject (python-gobject-patched) inkscape (inkscape-092-bzr, inkscape-bzr) (optional) – to convert svg to png with inkscape lib32-sni-qt-eplus-bzr (optional) – 32-bit patched qt4 sni plugin to enable icon modification sni-qt-eplus-bzr (optional) – patched qt4 sni plugin to enable icon modification

[alex-oleshkevich]

Having sni-qt-eplus-bzr installed solved that issue. Thank you!

[varlesh]

But this temporary solution because now developed another sni-qt version for hardcode-tray, this now available for ubuntu PPA only, but not for PKGBUILDS: https://github.com/bil-elmoussaoui/Hardcode-Tray/issues/243 https://github.com/bil-elmoussaoui/Hardcode-Tray/issues/242 https://github.com/bil-elmoussaoui/Hardcode-Tray/issues/240

@varlesh You need Gtk in order to run the script as we use Gtk to detect the current theme, and get the icon location(path) with the correct size. It's better than building our own system which will be a one more thing to handle...
