Menu: many icons missing #7

Closed ThanosApostolou closed 6 years ago

I've tried with different icon themes (Arc, Adwaita, Paper) and various icon sizes but there are always some icons missing: screenshot_2018-08-07_11-00-25

As you can read in the readme, the menu submodule is an exploit of menubar. There could be 3 possible reasons for this:

  1. there are applications that simply don't have an icon specification: in this case, it doesn't matter which icon theme you use, unless you manually create the .desktop files yourself;
  2. it can be caused by menu not fetching correctly: in this case, check if the icons appear in menubar; if they do, then it's something I can solve; check here on how to use menubar;
  3. it can be caused by menubar: in this case, you should forward the issue to Awesome bug tracker.

Yeah you are right, it also happens in menubar. I think this is the reported issue: https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/issues/1675
