No visual feedback to "connecting" state #4

Closed c-cesar closed 7 years ago

c-cesar commented 7 years ago

Hi. First, thanks for your work. Wireless connections can be in "connecting" state for quite a long time, and wile getting the authentication nm-tray shows me the same icon of connected networks.

Don't you see the "connecting" icon while establishing the wi-fi connection? (the symbolic name of icon when connection acquiring is network-wireless-acquiring-symbolic or network-wireless-acquiring)

Does the icon theme, you are currently using, provide such icons?

Note: I've pushed the fix for showing/updating the information on app startup recently in 4e249b0

making some tests here. Works with Faenza e Adawita icon themes, but not with Breeze or Oxygen. Looking this icon packs contents, this is a bug in the icon themes that not provides this acquiring status. Thanks.

Breeze and Oxygen maintainer, can you post a screenshot. Thanks

screenshot_20170107_182441 screenshot_20170107_182505 screenshot_20170107_182334 In all screeenshots nm-applet (gtk) is in the top, in acquiring state. The last image is nm-tray with Faenza Green icon theme, showing nm-tray supports the acquiring state icons.

Also, quering my packages return:

Breeze and Oxygen maintainer, can you post a screenshot.

@DarkknightAK here are the icon names, that are used (now I know, that there is no need to test foo-symbolic and foo as the standard says that foo should be considered also if foo-symbolic is not present..)

Are there any others suitable icons, that can be used for the aquiring state in Breeze/Oxygen?
