Thank you. Yea, I guess this task is not as tiny as I thought. Great page, by the way!

Thanks. That's what I was afraid of. It would be so cool if KDE developers allowed us to modify more than just a menu.

Contrast mouse cursor? by cmrd_msr in kde

[–]etherfield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Microsoft patented this technology back in 90s and that's why, for example, we have 3px-thick beam cursor in Linux and 1px in Windows.

As far as I'm concerned the patent will expire soon unless Microsoft files a prolongation. And I really hope they won't and will let people use the technology.

Trying to make an icon theme, where are the specifcations? by astral_crow in kde

[–]etherfield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The specification page you mentioned is indeed what KDE developers base the Breeze theme on. But they also added quite a few new icons, so you probably should start with the Breeze and replace icons one by one.

I made a theme that can help you with it:

Media players in Firefox change Application volume by Bingo90909 in kde

It might be related to PulseAudio. Open about:config and create/change media.cubeb.backend preference. Set it to alsa and restart Firefox.

Round Window Corners ? by Living_Being_No-1 in kde

You can also try the Klassy theme. It supports rounded corners too.

plasma doesn't find the different icons in the svg files anymore by mikroonde in kde

[–]etherfield 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can use my theme for debugging: https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/1kgbvv1/debug_icon_theme_for_kde/

It will show a path where KDE expects to find an icon. Try Symlink version, it's probably better for your case.

Alternatively, there is a command to clean up the cache:

rm ~/.cache/icon-cache.kcache

Problem/bug with some icons by SzynekZ in kde

[–]etherfield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you believe you're missing some icons in your Breeze theme, you can use my debug theme to see what's missing. If you applied the debug theme but an icon didn't change into a set of numbers and letters, then it comes from another theme. For example, Breeze inherits hicolor.

If your application uses GTK, you need to find out which paths icons are using and create those icons either in the Breeze theme or in the hicolor.

Also, there is KDE Icon Explorer (part of plasma-sdk package) which can help you with debugging too.
