The proper location for the icons is in: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/ Thank you for clarifying that. Is there a reason why "scalable" was chosen? AFAIK for desktop systems this is supposed to hold "scalable" graphics like SVGs while bitmaps icons are supposed to go under /usr/share/icons/hicolor/AxB/ (AxB being the dimension) (or perhaps I know wrong). I would also like to know this, as I was going to edit a few wiki pages that mention install locations for icons. However, all the locations above seem to work just fine (I tested with a few applications), and the freedesktop.org icon naming specification suggests that ‘apps’ is the correct subdirectory to use: http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/icon-naming-spec-latest.html#context Daniel, is /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/ the canonical location for all application icons on Fremantle, and if so, where is this documented? -- David King | http://amigadave.com/ | dav...@openismus.com ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Hi, ext Stefanos Harhalakis wrote: I'm currently using /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps/, but I see other applications using /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/hildon, or even /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps and /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon. Is there a "proper" location or is everything acceptable? The proper location for the icons is in: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/ I also noticed that putting an icon under hildon/ dirs makes it usable (visible) without requiring a reboot / hildon-desktop restart with PR>=1.1. Is this correct? This bug should be fixed with 1.2.

proper icon path
Hello, I'm trying to figure out which is the proper icon location for menu icons. I'm currently using /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps/, but I see other applications using /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/hildon, or even /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps and /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon. Is there a "proper" location or is everything acceptable?
