Bug ID: 431593 Summary: Please redesign or remove KeePassXC icons Product: Breeze Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Icons Assignee: visual-des...@kde.org Reporter: k...@jbev.net CC: kain...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- Breeze ships with a number of different override icons for KeePassXC: 1. A normal colourful one: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/KDE/breeze-icons/master/icons/apps/48/keepassxc.svg 2. A monochrome version: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/KDE/breeze-icons/master/icons/status/22/keepassxc-unlocked.svg 3. A monochrome version with an orange padlock: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/KDE/breeze-icons/master/icons/status/22/keepassxc-locked.svg We are not particularly happy with the way these icons were designed. The main flaws are: The colourful variant is using the wrong green tone and the shading is totally off (particularly the direction of the background gradient is wrong). If you want to provide a shaded override icon, please base it on our shaded macOS icon (without the background of course): https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/blob/develop/share/macosx/keepassxc.iconset/icon_512x512%402x.png The monochrome variant has totally wrong proportions and the orange padlock doesn't fit the style at all. We have different versions for light and dark themes, which have been carefully adjusted for legibility even at low resolutions. In fact, our version has much higher fidelity and works better at small tray sizes than the highly simplified Breeze icon, which to me looks rather glitchy. Mind you, the light variant is not simply a colour-inverted dark variant. It is shape-inverted. See: https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/tree/develop/share/icons/application/scalable/apps We are trying not to allow custom overrides for our icons, but Plasma seems to be ignoring that request and shows the Breeze overrides anyway. Generally, we would prefer not to be overridden by third-party icons at all, but if you need to show custom icons, please stick closer to the original and consider my requests. Personally, I have deleted the Breeze overrides from my system. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
