Public bug reported: Ubuntu MATE has icons on buttons by default, but a lot of people like the cleaner look of removing them. This also matches many other desktop environments.
There's no way to change setting for showing icons on buttons with the GUI. Using gsettings is not very discoverable or convenient for a lot of people. This used to be available in MATE Tweak's Interface section, but this was removed because the other options are no longer needed. This has been noticed by others as well, such as <https://ubuntu- mate.community/t/some-18-04-beta-1-feedback/16317/19>. I propose adding this to the Interface tab of Appearance settings. This would mirror the very similar setting for showing icons on menus that has a control there. ** Affects: mate-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768165 Title: No way to control showing icons on buttons with GUI To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mate-control-center/+bug/1768165/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
