Quoting from a comment in https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source /ubuntu-artwork/+bug/47001, a "workaround" for this is to manually edit the Tango index.theme file as follows:
Change "Size" from 48 to 96 and "MinSize" from 32 to 1 (for tree). Search in the /usr/share/icons/Tango/index.theme this part: [scalable/emblems] Size=48 Context=Emblems Type=Scalable MinSize=32 MaxSize=256 and change it to [scalable/emblems] Size=96 Context=Emblems Type=Scalable MinSize=1 MaxSize=256 This seems to work for the 'Important' emblem. However, due to the patch that specifically decreases the size of the 'symlink' emblem (https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/tango-icon- theme/+bug/36833), the 'symlink' emblems are then displayed with a way too small size. -- "Important" emblem is too big https://launchpad.net/bugs/47746 -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
