You know I'm not the kind of guy to damn Ubuntu because of the many bugs
that are still open now, but I'm going to end thinking you really don't
care. :-)
This is in my last mail:

 I found an easy workaround (see the
 report too): using 24x24 icons in themes such as Clearlooks restores the
 normal appearance of all icons. I could not find any drawback.


Which was cleary detailed here (two weeks ago):
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-themes/+bug/141227/comments/21

I quote my comment:
I tried a dirty hack: adding gtk-icon-sizes = panel-menu=24,24 to
/usr/share/themes/Clearlooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc. And now all my Clearlooks
icons are perfect in the menus. Should we only fix the erroneous themes
(they are in gnome-themes)?

Please, could somebody have a look to confirm this? Now it's quite late but 
this fix is *essential*. If there are drawbacks (and I could find none), they 
can hardly be worse than now.

Cheers

Gutsy is frozen now and new updates will not be accepted, the workaround
doesn't look right and the issue is only a cosmetic one and doesn't
impact the default theme. This could justify a gusty-updates stable
update but it would be better to figure why the icons look blurry and
fix that rather than using a workaround

 - cosmetic may be high priority if we consider that the proper sense
 of the word should be forbidden. The default theme has no problems, but
 gnome-themes are installed *by default* and is simple to use, so it's
 like it was default.  We should expect more than half the users use
 gnome-themes

There is very few bugs or comments about that for the moment though. The
issue is only cosmetic in the sense that's not a security issues or
doesn't impact on what you can do using the distribution

 the release will be: Ubuntu is not able to guarantee a basic clean
 interface from a version to another. Whatever the new features can be
 in other domains.

The issue is not likely specific to Ubuntu and the upstream theme didn't
switch to 22x22 this cycle, is the issue new in gutsy?


 - why gnome-themes use 22x22 icons when Human uses 24x24? I can't find
 any reason to this, and I don't know whether it was the case in previous
 versions or whether it has changed. 

The correct upstream format is 22x22, the Human theme could use some
work and should be update, the gtkrc has been updated with the 24x24
workaround but that's not the correct way

 Is everybody here experiencing the same? Does any developer want to

Hi,

As mentioned on the bug already that's not an Ubuntu specific issue and
should be worked upstream. There is no easy workaround known at the
moment but if you know one you are welcome to describe it on the bug

Bug: blurry menu icons with most of gnome-themes

2007-10-14 Thread Milan
I'd like to raise your awareness about bug 141227
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-themes/+bug/141227)
which deals with a major issue in Gutsy.

Many menu icons appear blurry when you choose a theme other than Human.
I believe this is impacting all Ubuntu Destkops. This is involving
pretty standard applications like Baobab, Preferred applications and
even About GNOME. It makes any custom theme unusable (i.e. ugly), thus
restricting Ubuntu to one only theme.

There are bugs open upstream (see the report), but nobody seems to act
there. This is a matter of 22x22 icons not being installed by
applications (Human is using 24x24). I found an easy workaround (see the
report too): using 24x24 icons in themes such as Clearlooks restores the
normal appearance of all icons. I could not find any drawback.

Is everybody here experiencing the same? Does any developer want to
tackle the ugliest bug I have found in Gutsy? Maybe it can be fixed with
a few tweaks.

Thanks - and sorry for talking about bugs in the list, but it seems that
in some cases we are allowed to, and we should
