Some panel icons are too big in eOS Loki #1154

This happens with others icon themes, but with the default (elementary) they look ok.

n1c0saurio commented 8 years ago

This can be solved putting the required symbolic icons in "/Numix/24/panel/".

Note: I find symbolic icons for sound indicator only, for notifications and session indicators I used other ones.

@Foggalong, what do you think about moving all (!) monochrome icons, that are supposed to show up in the tray to panel? It's actually a tad more consistent anyways

@Lupusaurus Care to tell us which icons you added?

n1c0saurio commented 8 years ago

All taken from status folder.

andia89 commented 8 years ago

Hmm These Icons are in numix but in the scalable folders. Not Sure if we can rescale them 🤔

Foggalong commented 8 years ago

Wait, so is this a problem with Panethon Tray not picking up the *-symbolic icons in /scalable and going for the ones in /panel instead?

andia89 commented 8 years ago

No I guess the Problem is that it is picking the One from scalable (16px) and scales them to 22px. This makes them Look huge and blurry. How does Gnome handle that?

Foggalong commented 8 years ago

Ah damn. I thought the GNOME panel was set to 16px anyway so doesn't have that problem?

andia89 commented 8 years ago

Anyone using GNOME Panel?

Foggalong commented 8 years ago

Ping @dirtydancing

dirtydancing commented 8 years ago

Hmm, as I am currently using Ubuntu/Unity, I cannot check with Arch/GNOME. But iirc, GNOME panel is indeed using the 16px symbolic-named icons, usually from scalable, and usually the symbolic-named icons are located in scalableand are sized 16px (the infamous battery status icons may differ).

In any event, I do not recall a problem with GNOME panel in the past. But I do recall that eOS are sometimes going their own way for their own consistency (fair enough), so I would caution against tailoring for eOS if that potentially causes trouble with other Distros/DEs.

Can confirm this issue btw. Numix generally is looking a bit pants on elementary atm screenshot_2017-11-01_22-00-17

@Foggalong Papirus guys fixed that here https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-icon-theme/issues/724

Foggalong commented 7 years ago

Oh god, so to fix it we have to put *-symbolic icons in the panel folder? :cold_sweat:

bilelmoussaoui commented 7 years ago

Nop, we just need to add other sizes for symbolic icons (only the ones used by eOS)

Foggalong commented 7 years ago

*-symbolic icons are in a completely stand-alone size category called "scalable", so assuming they're already there at 16px we'll have to find somewhere else for the 24px copies

joshonjuno commented 5 years ago

I am no expert on anything. I only started using linux six months ago. But, if anyone cares, this is how I fixed the issue for my particular desktop. I just opened the Numix Circle folder and deleted the 24 panel folder. Then opened the index.theme file and changed Inherits=Numix to: Inherits=elementary.

Hope this was relative and useful to someone. Works for me............those giant blurry icons were driving me CRAZY. desktop_sans_24

Foggalong commented 5 years ago

Thanks @joshonjuno for posting this! It's not something we can implement because other DEs depend on 24/panel to work at all, but it's useful for elementary users where that's not the case :)
