Megasync 3.5 in xfce

[hxss]

@varlesh, you said that megasync now support icon themes. But in xfce I still see original colored icon.

Can you help me fix this bug?

4.13.12-1-ARCH megasync 3.5-1(from official site) Papirus-icons(updated right now and I see new mega icons in /ust/share/...)

tested on KDE Neon

Do you offer me to use hardcode-tray or unity?

[varlesh]

This icons not hardcoded anymore. Please see #549

[varlesh]

It's upstream bug xfce4-session: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12012 It's happened because xfce4-session compiled with flag --disable-legacy-sm - that breaks qt4 integration on xfce.

[hxss]

Isn't megasync use qt5?

[varlesh]

Yes, i know but maybe it's happened for qt5-apps too. Try it. i'm not use xfce. On Unity and KDE megasync use icons from Papirus. It's XFCE bug

[varlesh]

Also check Qt5 settings on XFCE. For better looking recommend use qt5ct tool

[varlesh]

It's available on community arch repo https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/qt5ct/

[varlesh]

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Uniform_look_for_Qt_and_GTK_applications

[hxss]

I'm already use qt5ct.

[varlesh]

i don't know how help you. You see my screen, on KDE it's worked fine

[varlesh]

@hxss other qt5-apps use system icon theme - qBittorrent, clementine-qt5 and etc?

[hxss]

@varlesh qbittorrent and keepassxc use your icons without hardcode.

[varlesh]

hm, it's very strange

[hxss]

this is from README in arch xfce-session:

Legacy session management:

As of version 4.1.7, the session manager includes native support for applications that don't support the X11R6 session management protocol, but support legacy (X11R5) session management. If you don't need legacy session management support, you can disable it at compile time, giving --disable-legacy-sm to ./configure.

I'm now trying understand how to compile it with --enable-legacy-sm

[hxss]

ok, it seems like I was able to compile xfce4-session with --enable-legacy-sm and install it.

Then I logout/login and nothing changed. Still red mega icon in tray.

[varlesh]

i'm extract megasync 3.5.1 deb package and see this:

Used Qt4 libs...

[varlesh]

maybe qt5-version not support this?

[hxss]

in arch mega.pkg.tar.xz only binary file and icons. But pkg has dependencies from qt5-base and qt5-svg. VLC(it use qt4 for gui?) also show colored icon in tray.

vlc used monochrome icon on Unity and KDE only. it's worked with name -panelsuffix. Also for KDE icon used from plasma theme and it's worked for qt-apps only on KDE.

try run with: XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=kde megasync or XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=Unity megasync

[hxss]

every time red icon and:

XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=kde megasync                                                                                                           [~]

already installed

[hxss]

I exec sudo ln -sf /usr/share/icons/Papirus/22x22/panel/mega* /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/status.

Logged out/in but still red icon. I was sure, that this action 100% gives me normal icons! 🙁

[varlesh]

Sorry i can't test qt5-version. For Ubuntu 16.04 available only qt4-version

[varlesh]

@hxss error libpng error: Not a PNG file maybe try convert SVG to PNG?

[hxss]

I can try. But original mega icon in svg too

[varlesh]

I mean maybe it's bug qt5ct on XFCE.... but other Qt5-apps show svg icons on tray. It's very strange bug

[varlesh]

I'm reopen issue. maybe anybody help you

[varlesh]

@Lupusaurus @eldelacajita @infuerano @akyag Hi guys, Megasync used tray icons from Papirus? And please tell what you version use Qt4/Qt5 and DE Thx!

[hxss]

[hxss]

added issue to megasync

[hxss]

png icons didn't work too

[bilelmoussaoui]

@hxss just use Hardcode-Tray ;)

[hxss]

@bil-elmoussaoui if it worked.. I was try Hardcode-Tray as first solution.

And see #943 (comment)

[bilelmoussaoui]

The icons are not hardcoded anymore, but megasync picks up the icons from hicolor; don't know why. + you have to update the icon cache of hicolor.

That's why i suggested to you to use hardcode-tray ;)

[hxss]

sudo hardcode-tray --apply
sudo gtk-update-icon-cache -f -t /usr/share/icons/hicolor
xfce4-panel -r #restart
*restart megasync*

still red

[n1c0saurio]

Hi, in Pantheon (eOS Loki) works well:

And in my OS Megasync uses Qt4 dependences.
