Public bug reported: Most of icons do not change when changing icon theme.
This is for folder icons, icons of disk drives, icons of computer, home folder, network servers, trash, .exe files etc. Some themes though, change more icons than others. For example, some themes change folder icons while others do not. Not only in Nautilus affected: in other applications icons may change and may not, sometimes in Nautilus icons do not change while in other applications do. In gnome-appearance-settings in theme previews icons always displayed as it should be. There is a workaround, the following commands executed in the theme folder: cd ~/.icons/OSX/scalable/places/ ln -s gnome-fs-directory.png folder.png ln -s gnome-fs-directory.png gtk-directory.png But this works only for one theme and only for folder icon. There are no known workarounds for icons of devices for example. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Icons do not change when changing icon theme https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/291477 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
