Are you referring to the background colour of the Numix Circle icon?
We ship different colours. Go to where Numix Circle/Square is installed and search for file-manager
. You'll find some alternative colours.
Now look up and open the .desktop
laucher file and change the icon line to file-manager-red
for instance.
If you want to change the colour of the folder itself, this is the very purpose of numix-folders.
I did a find on the file-manager
name in directory or any of the subdirectories. I've done a recursive search on it as well; however no result appears for the file file-manager
You'll probably find the .desktop
file in usr/share/applications
. Copy it to ~/.local/share/applications
so you can edit it without root privileges and it is update-persistent.
What .desktop
file am I looking for? I can't seem to find the file-manager
one in this instance.
Which file manager do you use? Nautilus, Thunar, Dolphin, Caja, Pantheon Files......?
Nautilus.
In this case you need to look for org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop
.
Are there any documentations available that suggests when adding a colour extension to the end of the icon name for e.g. Icon=org.gnome.Nautilus.orange
would show an example of the output ?
I've modified the org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop
file to have any sort of colour, it changed the folder icon to a blank white folder with the star of david inside which isn't desirable for me.
Sorry, I do not understand what you are asking for. Adding that "colour extension" won't do anything for sure though.
You need to edit it to Icon=file-manager-red
or Icon=file-manager-blue
or file-manager-green
.
That's all alternative colours we've got at the moment.
I see thanks!
I've set the Icon to be blue and it seems to be fine for now :+1:
Would it be possible to replace files icon in numix-circle?
Changing the default one which has a horrendous purple background to something more simpler?
The default one
To something like this?
