In traditional desktop layout mode, the Mint software manager icon (mintinstall) and the Synaptic software manager icon are almost the same, which is confusing...

xenopeek commented 4 years ago

When switching from modern to traditional layout the default icon theme is switched from Mint-Y to Mint-X. You could switch your icon theme back to Mint-Y in Themes settings.

But yes, with Mint-X icon theme the difference between Software Manager and Synaptic icons is small: Mint-X Here are the same in Mint-Y: Mint-Y

I don't like Mint Y (neither its icons), I only use Mint X like other people. On a 15'' screen laptop the difference between the icons is too weak and misleads the user. Using the Synaptic icon inherited from Debian would be a better solution I think. Regards.

Moving the issue to mint-x-icons.

Phil995511 commented 4 years ago

The problem is present with mint-x-icons !!

Please assign a new icon at Synaptic Pakage Manager.

Look the print screan of xenopeek.

Software Manager & Synaptic Pakage Manager have almost the same icon.

On a 15'' screen laptop the difference between the icons is too weak and misleads the user.

Regards.
