SVG recolouring #46

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

How me make white icons in top-bar?

whiteIcons

keeferrourke commented 8 years ago

If you want them white right now, you will need to recolour them yourself. At the moment La Capitaine does not support dark GTK themes. This is a planned improvement, but will take some time as I'm busy with midterms. See issue #4.

Elbullazul commented 8 years ago

sorry to get in this conversation, but it seems that by editing yourself the SVGs and replacing whatever icon color in them by 'bebebeff' it will recolor the SVG according to the fg color of the theme

just saying, someone told me that, but I've never tried yet

keeferrourke commented 8 years ago

@Elbullazul do you have a source on that? many of the symbolic icons in La Capitaine are already coloured as #bebebe will full opacity (ff). If that's the case, I may make it more of an issue to recolour all symbolic icons to that colour.

Elbullazul commented 8 years ago

@keeferrourke a long-time icon theme maintainer suggested me this solution when I ran into the same issue (still to be fixed). Also, the original gnome theme has this fix to avoid bugs in shell (or gtk-derived desktops): further details

this could also save you time from forking a new theme with light symbolic icons

keeferrourke commented 8 years ago

@Elbullazul thanks so much for the helpful response! this should help resolve issue #4 and improve compatibility with gtk themes in general :)

I'm going to reclose this issue, and open a new one that pertains only to recolouring symbolic and action icons.

@keeferrourke

Elbullazul commented 8 years ago

Elbullazul commented 8 years ago

gtk seems ok, it's a unity thing then

same thing should happen with other icon themes, right?

ghost commented 8 years ago

@Elbullazul No, for different icons all is good!

Elbullazul commented 8 years ago

then it's unity having problems...

ghost commented 8 years ago

@Elbullazul Hi! I'm updated Ubuntu to 16.10 but anyway I have it's problem with icons): Dark icons White icons

Elbullazul commented 8 years ago

then it seems Unity washes colors to white on dash view.
