icons missing for xfce 4.16, but work fine on older xfce version

[iokzero]

Log Screen icon, and Switch icon for xfce 4.16 is missing for some reason, they work just fine on xfce 4.14

This should be solved by numixproject/numix-core#5624?

@iokzero Does this still persist? If so, can you please attach a screenshot so I can see which icons are missing?

Hi,

Thanks for looking into this,

Yes, there are a couple key system icons missing, or being not recognized. namely Lock and switch user being the most obvious one.

I also attached some screens for app icons that are missing too. Some are super popular like Wireshark , while a few no one really uses. in case you want to look into that as well.

BTW this is an amazing set of icon themes.

I can't see the screenshots unfortunately. Maybe you attached to the email? They won't show up here this way.

Oh yes, I just replied the E - Mail. I will try that in GitHub later tonight.

Thanks

Thanks for the screenshot.

Unfortunately we can't fix the icons for avahi (iirc the icon names aren't app icon names). Do you need those launchers? I don't and I hide those by copying the respective .desktop launchers from /usr/share/applications to ~/.local/share/applications and adding the line NoDisplay=true (with a text editor).

We can't fix the icons for Jupyter Notebook. The icon name probably is notebook which is too generic to add to our app icon theme (the icon would appear in places it shouldn't like toolbars). You can fix the icon by copying the launcher file to ~/.local/share/applications andchanging the icon line ``Icon=jupyter` (with a text editor).

There's another issue: The icons for Restart and Suspend aren't supposed to be Numix Circle icons. They should rather look like the icons for Log Out, Shut Down, ...

Regarding the other unthemed icons: Can you please look up the icon names? For the apps (Orage, cd master, Xcas, wireshark, dosbox, java) you need to find the lines Icon=... from the respective .desktop launcher files in /usr/share/applications.

The icons at the bottom of the menu will be more difficult to find, there should be somewhere inside usr/share/icons(/hicolor).

By the way, what's your distro and how did you install the theme? Judging from how your Pidgin icon looks the version of Numix Circle you are using must be quite outdated.

OK, I think I can help fix some of the issues, Understood some app icons maybe missing, and that's OK. So let's focusing on the system icons.

Under xfce4.18. The lock screen and switch user icon is missing. And I found that can be easily be fix. By adding some symlinks

xfsm-switch-user.svg (from user.svg) xfsm-lock.svg(from system-lock-screen.svg)

Than run an update icon.them.cache: gtk-update-icon-cache

Problem solved.

It might be good to keep the post open if anyone might be interested on added all those missing icons. But the main issue is some of the icons are not showing up on the latest xfce (4.18) so I think that's being fixed. Just some missing symlinks.

Added symlinks to https://github.com/numixproject/numix-core. Thanks for letting us now. Will be in the next Numix Circle/Square releases.
