folder colors #356

Hi! I really appreciated this icon set. I've used Folder Color (http://foldercolor.tuxfamily.org/) to change default folder blue color into orange (it's more Ubuntu style coupled with the Ultra-flat theme), but something strange happens: some icons in the menu bars for some applications (e.g. synaptic package manager) are no more the Papirus ones. After that I must turn back into the default Papirus theme with blue folder icons with Unity Tweak Tool. 1) Could you suggest any workaround? 2) Is it possible to have an orange for folders like the one of the Papirus Ubuntu logo (launcher_bfb.png)? Thanks again very much!

It happens because Folder Color does not change icon theme system-wide, just per user. You can move your Folder Color' theme to /usr/share/icons, or create a symlink:

sudo ln -s ~/.icons/Papirus-Dark.foldercolor /usr/share/icons/

where Papirus-Dark is your current icon theme.

Workaround not perfect, but works.

Is it possible to have an orange for folders like the one of the Papirus Ubuntu logo (launcher_bfb.png)?

I left it as an enhancement.
