Public bug reported: If Hidden=true in an index.theme file, the theme is listed and selectable in the Unity Tweak user interface, but the theme should not be visible.
TEST #1: 1. Open the Hicolor icon theme index.theme file (/usr/share/icons/hicolor/index.theme). 2. Notice that index.theme file has "Hidden=true" on the fourth line. 3. Launch Unity Tweak, and navigate to the Icons tab. 4. Notice that the Hicolor icon theme is visible and selectable. TEST #2: 1. Edit an icon theme file under /usr/share/icons/. 2. Enter Hidden=true in the [Icon Theme] section. 3. Launch Unity Tweak, and navigate to the Icons tab. 3. Notice that the theme is still visible and selectable. BACKGROUND: According to "Icon Theme Specification" at Freedesktop.org... "Hidden - Whether to hide the theme in a theme selection user interface. This is used for things such as fallback-themes that are not supposed to be visible to the user."
