Colors merge in the white background for Konqeror and some other icons #6

This is a regression. It relates to: konqeror tdevelop kdevdesigner

In the previous stable waterleaf-icon-theme_20190804 https://github.com/jaerrib/waterleaf-icon-theme/releases/tag/20190804 release the Konqueror cogwheel had a shade of gray, while in the latest release it is colorized somewhat. The new colorization merges in a lighter backgroud, see the pictures:

We would suggest to use a bit darker shade of gray for the cogwheel, as it should give much better experience.

The color change came about when I updated the color palette from Elementary to Paper. I can use the same palette but try using a darker variation of the cog wheel color to differentiate it from the background

q4osteam commented 4 years ago

We would prefer a less intensive color for the cogwheel, anyway it needs to be a bit darker to differentiate it from the white background.

jaerrib commented 4 years ago

Two possible alternate colors for the cog wheel. The color of the first is probably closer to the original you preferred but now uses the Paper/Waterleaf palette. However, the the shadow tends to blend in with this particular shade. The second one has more differentiation between those elements and may also stand out better against a lighter background. konqueror_recolor konqueror_recolor2

We will test them and post a results, thanks for the samples.

q4osteam commented 4 years ago

Both look fine throughout the testing, maybe the second one makes a slightly better experience. Nonetheless, you are welcome to choose any by your preferences.

jaerrib commented 4 years ago

Color change made for all three icons. If they test okay, I will close the bug as being fixed.

Konqueror and Tdevelop icons look perfect now, however we have noticed most likely incorrect, black, shadow at the bottom of kdevdesigner icon, see the picture. It's related only to the "kdevdesigner" for sizes > 32

Black shadowing: issue7a

Looks to be fixed now, thanks for the great work.
