Re: Locolor-Icons

Great! I noticed today that linking the 'locolor' dir to the 'hicolor' dir will do the same trick inclusive dithering.

But there is a bug: If you install the locolor-icon theme it stops working! I would expect it to search first user's locolor-icons followed by system-wide locolor-icons and last dithering system-wide highcolor-icons.

In what sense ?

You seem to be still using hicolor as your icon theme. Go to KControl->Look&Feel->Icons and select locolor as your icon theme.

About #26618, the application cannot assume that locolor is installed anymore, so this is a problem in the application installation.

In the locolor-icon theme missing icons are not dithered anymore. As soon as I apply it e.g. the Kate icon in Kicker changes to "unknown" icon. After "dcop kicker restart" e.g. the icons of the game-submenus changed to "unknown" icon too.

No, "KDE-LoColor, Lowcolor Icon Theme" is selected. Applying it again, doesn't change anything either.

Aaah, I see. You're right, that's a real problem (but different from #26618). Thanks for reporting it.

It's fixed now. Please update your locolor theme from the kdeartwork module.
